Serifos to Paros Route Map
Serifos to Paros is operated by Hellenic Seaways on the conventional Artemis, taking a little over two hours. The ship crosses east from the western Cyclades into the central group, and on this leg it is a direct run rather than a multi-stop itinerary.
Paros is one of the larger and busier Cyclades islands, and ferries arrive at Parikia on the west coast. The waterfront has the full range of ticket agents, car hire and bus links, and the Panagia Ekatontapiliani, the Church of a Hundred Doors and one of the oldest surviving churches in Greece, is a short walk from the port. Naoussa on the north coast offers the livelier evening scene and the windsurfing beaches.
The service runs only a couple of times a week, so check the dates before planning around it. Current departures and fares are shown in the table below. Paros is one of the busiest hubs in the Cyclades, so once there onward links to Naxos, Mykonos, Santorini and Antiparos are plentiful.

Hiring a car
Can you rent a car in Paros?
Yes, and rental desks cluster right by the port in Parikia, most just a couple of minutes' walk from where the ferry docks. A car earns its keep here: nowhere on Paros is more than about 30 minutes' drive away, opening up marble-quarry villages and quieter southern beaches that the KTEL bus network doesn't reach directly. Compare local suppliers at Discover Cars if you'd rather not rely on the bus timetable.
Do you need a car on Serifos?
Not strictly. Chora sits on a hill about 4.5km above the port at Livadi, and a bus, roughly fifteen minutes for two euros, runs regularly between the two in summer. A car or scooter, hired from the small handful of offices in Livadi, makes sense for reaching the island's scattered beaches, but book ahead: the rental fleet is limited and August sells out fast. Compare prices at Discover Cars.

Tips for the Serifos to Paros ferry
- Cable or combination luggage locks sold at airports offer minimal real security but do deter casual interference; a proper padlock is better.
- Confirmation emails sometimes contain a QR code for faster boarding – screenshotting this and zooming in before you reach the scanner saves time at the gate.
- The period immediately after the 15th August peak sees a rapid fall in demand; last-minute seats become available again from around the 20th.
- In Paros, the charming fishing village of Naoussa on the north coast is the best place to eat fresh seafood at family-run waterfront tavernas. The main town of Parikia has an impressive Byzantine cathedral built from the marble of ancient temples, and the island's beaches – particularly Kolymbithres with its sculpted granite rocks – are among the most striking in the Cyclades.
