Antonakis Antonis Mayor of Serifos      Welcome to Serifos, the island of legend and reality, the erotic island with the most beautiful beaches in the Aegean. To the magic of the architecture of the castle in Chora, the quaint villages, the historic monastery, the special festivals.   Enjoy the island with us Antonis

Serifos the Erotic Island!   An island of strong contrasts with an active magnetic field created by its metalliferous rocks, it’s an ideal proposal for relaxed holidays in a clearly Cycladic environment or for intense nightlife, which captivates you at first sight.

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 that will make your holidays unforgettable. The whole island is a balcony to the Aegean Sea, with an outlook over Kithnos to the North, Siros 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.

It extends approximately 75 square kilometers (about as much as Siros) and has a total length of beaches of about 10 kilometers. The enchanting Chora is the capital town, a bunch of white houses built on an almost perpendicular rock, with windmills and stone paved pedestrian walkways, which classify it among one of the most beautiful capital towns of the Greek islands.   Serifos is a member of SKAL     www.skal.org     Have a nice summer 2009!
