Serifos is an island of strong contrasts with an active magnetic field created by its metalliferous rocks; leeward coasts embraced by steep rocks, almost all of them enjoying thick natural shade from salt cedars growing in the sand, with crystal blue waters, golden beaches and villages with small white houses are some of the island’s features. The whole island is a balcony to the Aegean Sea, with an outlook over Kithnos to the north, Syros to the northeast, Paros to the east, Sifnos to the southeast and Milos to the south.

Dry stones, watered with the sweat of people for centuries, preserve some handfuls of soil for small vineyards or citrus fruits («the stripes») striving to flatten the steep rocky mountain sides that hide green, shadowy ravines among them. Serifos is an ideal proposal for combining relaxed holidays in a pure Cycladic environment along with an intense nightlife.
