The Journey

The Serifos to Paros ferry is one of the Cyclades' most popular connections, operating seasonal service with journey times from 2h to 3h 36m and tickets from €12.00. The route is served by Seajets. Ferries operate Apr - Oct.

Paros is celebrated for its charming Naoussa fishing village, world-class windsurfing at Golden Beach, traditional whitewashed architecture, and the stunning Parikia old town. Whether you're drawn by the beaches, the local cuisine, or the authentic Cycladic atmosphere, Paros rewards visitors who make the crossing.

Insider Tip: The Serifos to Paros crossing is one of the Aegean's most scenic routes. Grab a seat on the outdoor deck for unbeatable sea views. Traveling mid-week usually means emptier ferries and a more relaxed arrival. In peak season, book at least 2–3 weeks in advance to secure your preferred departure time.

Seat & Cabin Classes: Economy Seats: Numbered airline-style seats (standard). Business Class: Premium seats in quieter forward cabin with extra legroom. First Class / VIP: Available on select vessels — premium lounge with dedicated service. No sleeping cabins on high-speed vessels.

Luggage Policy: Up to 50 kg per passenger, free of charge. On high-speed catamarans, luggage is stored in overhead bins or designated racks — no large oversize items. All luggage must fit in designated storage areas.

Pets: Pets accepted free when included in booking. Animals under 10 kg stay with owner in a carrier in the passenger cabin. Larger pets use kennels in the vehicle area. Health certificate required. Note: on rough sea days, pets in the vehicle area may experience more motion.

Vehicles: Selected Seajets vessels carry vehicles — check the specific sailing when booking. Car rates from €35–70. Motorcycles from €10–20. Many Seajets catamaran services are passenger-only — if vehicle transport is essential, verify before booking.

All ferries on this route have clean restrooms, luggage storage areas, and food and beverage service. In peak season (July–August), we recommend reserving a specific seat or cabin class rather than traveling on an open deck ticket.

Travel Tips

Plan your journey

Getting to Serifos Port

Port of Livadi is Serifos's charming harbour, below the dramatic hilltop Chora visible from the dock. The port village has excellent fish tavernas and a long sandy beach. Buses to Chora (4 km, 15 min, €2) run frequently in summer. Taxis to Chora cost €8–10. Arrive 30 minutes before departure. Serifos is a quieter destination — the port is relaxed and unhurried except for the peak summer ferry rush in July–August. Limited car rental options at the port.

Arriving in Paros

Arriving in Parikia, you're immediately in the heart of island life — the old town, with its famous Panagia Ekatontapyliani church, is steps away. Frequent buses depart to Naoussa, Golden Beach, and Aliki from the bus station adjacent to the port. Car and scooter rentals line the port road. Naoussa, Paros's charming fishing village, is 12 km away — taxis cost €15 or take the frequent bus. The port area has excellent fish restaurants and cafés.

Booking Tips for 2026

Seajets prices are lowest when booked 3+ months ahead. In summer, the fastest sailings (Worldchampion Jet routes) sell out weeks in advance. For the cheapest fares, choose earlier morning departures. Seajets is the best choice for the Athens–Mykonos, Mykonos–Santorini, and Santorini–Ios routes.

Things to Do in Paros

Paros is celebrated for its charming Naoussa fishing village, world-class windsurfing at Golden Beach, traditional whitewashed architecture, and the stunning Parikia old town. Don't miss exploring the main town (Chora), the local beaches, and the traditional tavernas. For a full guide to Paros's top attractions, restaurants, and hidden gems, visit our Paros island guide.

FAQ

Common questions

The ferry from Serifos to Paros takes between 2h and 3h 36m, depending on the vessel type and operator. High-speed catamarans offer the fastest crossing at approximately 2h, while conventional ferries take up to 3h 36m but offer more spacious travel with outdoor decks, cafeterias, and cabin options. Journey times may be slightly longer in winter due to sea conditions.
