Tips for the Santorini–Serifos Ferry
- When travelling with a motorcycle, book and pay for the vehicle space at the same time as your passenger ticket – vehicle spaces can sell out separately.
- Most ferries have a small kiosk selling souvenirs, snacks, and basic travel items; useful if you have forgotten sunscreen or earplugs.
- Sunscreen is mandatory on the exposed deck of a ferry in summer; even a two-hour crossing can result in sunburn if you stand in direct sun.
- In Serifos, the hilltop Chora perched dramatically above the port is one of the most striking capital towns in the Cyclades, with chapels, churches, and windmills scattered through its whitewashed lanes. The island’s beaches are never overcrowded, and the walking trails connecting them reward those who prefer to explore on foot.
