Travelling from Ios to Serifos takes you from one of the Cyclades’ liveliest party islands to one of its most quietly rewarding — a contrast that makes the crossing feel genuinely worthwhile. The ferry route runs from March through to September, so you have a solid window to work with whether you’re planning a spring escape or a peak-summer island hop.
Through the summer months you can usually count on one or two sailings a day, which gives you decent flexibility when planning onward travel. Shoulder months — March, April, May and September — tend to offer one departure daily, so a little advance planning goes a long way.
