G.A. Ferries and Ventouris Lines run services (4 hrs 30 mins) which together provide daily connections with Piraeus by car ferry. This is supplemented in the summer season by a daily service by faster boat, operated either by Aegean Speed Lines or Hellenic Seaways Highspeed, both of which take vehicles and make the journey in 2 hrs 30 mins. Nearly all services continue to Siphnos and Milos.

Seriphos or Serifos Island, Greece.

The island’s selection of accommodation is plentiful but does not offer great style. More comfortable than most are the well-equipped Studios Niobi (Easter to Oct), overlooking the bay of Livádi from the east side (T./fax. 22810 52564, www.studiosniovi.gr). The Hotel Naias in the port is open all year (T. 22810 51749). Currently there are few options available in the more picturesque setting of Chora: a modern and comfortable solution on the edge of Chora is Anatoli Studios (T. 22810 51510).

Taverna Marditsa by the beach at Megálo Livádi produces some of the best and simplest home-cooking on the island. One of the joys of Seriphos is its excellent fresh cognac-coloured wine: this can be purchased at “Loza“, be low the castle in Chora, or be sampled together with mezés at the Café Stou Stratou in the picturesque square of the Demarcheion in Chora. The café also serves properly made Greek coffee.
