Heraklion to Serifos ferry

Leaving Heraklion, the lively Cretan capital, for Serifos brings the open Aegean into view and turns the crossing into a graceful step between two very different Greek islands. Serifos lies in the western Cyclades, known for its rugged hills, pale stone villages and beaches framed by clear water. Its hilltop Chora, rising above the port of Livadi, is one of the island’s most memorable sights, with narrow lanes and classic Cycladic architecture waiting above the shoreline. The Heraklion – Serifos ferry route is a lovely choice for travellers continuing from Crete towards the quieter, more unhurried character of the Cyclades.
