Getting from Amorgos to Serifos

If you are heading to Serifos from Amorgos you are making your way from the most eastern of the Cyclades to an island in the western part of the group. It has a Chora that climbs a steep hill above the port in a way that looks almost impossibly dramatic from the water.

Take the ferry

There is no direct ferry from Amorgos to Serifos. Getting there means taking the ferry from Amorgos to Piraeus, which takes around 5.5 to 9.5 hours, and then boarding the Piraeus to Serifos ferry, which runs 4 to 5 times daily in summer and takes around 2 to 3.5 hours. Alternatively, take the ferry from Amorgos to Naxos, fly to Athens and take the ferry from Piraeus to Serifos.

Getting there by air

Serifos has no airport. The nearest airport is Athens. Amorgos has no airport either. Taking the ferry from Amorgos to Naxos, flying to Athens and then taking the ferry from Piraeus to Serifos gives a total journey time of around 6 to 7 hours. In Greece, airlines do not operate direct inter island flights.

Your best option

Take the ferry from Amorgos to Naxos, fly to Athens and take the ferry from Piraeus to Serifos. At around 2 to 3.5 hours the Piraeus to Serifos crossing is one of the more manageable Cyclades connections. If you are traveling with a car, take the overnight ferry from Amorgos to Piraeus and board the conventional Piraeus to Serifos ferry, which takes your vehicle directly to Livadi port.
