The ferry from Piraeus to Serifos is one of the classic Cyclades crossings — a direct link between Greece’s busiest port and a strikingly beautiful island that somehow avoids the crowds of its better-known neighbours. The route runs year-round, so you can visit Serifos in any season, though winter sailings are less frequent and the weather can be lively out in the open Aegean. Our Piraeus port guide covers the gate system and getting to the port, worth a read if this is your first sailing from there.
On average, you can expect around 3 ferries per day across the year. Summer months bring up to 4 daily sailings, giving you real flexibility with your timing. In winter, service drops back to roughly 2 sailings a day, so it pays to plan ahead and check the schedule before you commit to your dates.
