These are essentially 2 beaches formed on either side of a narrow strip of land. They have wonderful turquoise waters and one is sandy with tamarisk, while the other is pebbled. They are not organized, so make sure you have the essentials with you.

Beach with thick golden sand and emerald waters. The colored pebbles at the bottom make it ideal for exploring with the mask. It has a few umbrellas and sunbeds, but no natural shade.

Built on the hill above the port, the town of Serifos (capital of the island) is a whole attraction. Typical Cycladic architecture and narrow whitewashed streets cross the two neighborhoods, Pano Chora and Kato Chora.
Chora Serifos
Built on the hill above the port, the town of Serifos (capital of the island) is a whole attraction. Typical Cycladic architecture and narrow whitewashed streets cross the two neighborhoods, Pano Chora and Kato Chora.
The building has the characteristics of a fortress and it is constructed inside a high surrounding wall and it has only one entrance, which is 4m. high, embrasures and a mobile ladder. This construction is due to the fact that the monastery’s wealth had a great reputation, attracting pirates, against who the monks were forced to fight.
The monastery is dedicated to the archangels Michael and Gabriel, who are also the island’s patrons, and their icon that has been transferred from Cyprus is considered to be wonder-working.
Its sanctuary is a three-aisled building, single-spaced with a dome. Its frescos, part of which still exists nowadays are said to be created by Emmanuel Scordilis and they represent the fight of the Archangel against the beast of the Revelation, the Dragon, who swallows kings and bishops.
The temple’s icons are considered to be a characteristic sample of the Cretan hagiographic school.
What’s also very interesting is the relief two-headed eagle on the marble floor (1659), while among the treasures of the monastery there are some remarkable utensils for worship, manuscripts and the Sacred Code (of 1754). In 1909 a library has been founded in the monastery.
