Serifos
The distinct Cycladic flair of Serifos and its rich history and rugged mining sites make this island a must-see on your charter. The island exudes a calm atmosphere and speaks directly to the senses. Despite its arid and wild land characteristics, Serifos is gracefully embraced by the deep blue colors of the Aegean Sea.

Climate
Like other Cyclades Islands, Sifnos has a Mediterranean climate, with mild, moderately rainy winters and warm, sunny summers. The wind blows frequently: in winter, a cold wind from the continent can blow, while summers are characterized by the Meltemi, a wind that tempers the heat while keeping the sea temperature cool. However, this can also make the sea rough and create marine currents.

Gastronomy
Revithada (slow-baked chickpea stew) is a traditional Sunday dish that bakes from Saturday night till the next day after Sunday church service. The long cooking time results in a delicious meal. Local cheeses include gylomeni manoura (buttery sheep and goat milk cheese), xynomyzithra (a mild, soft table cheese), and chloromanoura (fresh-tasting, mild cheese).
Pastry lovers will delight in amazing scones, anise cookies, and cakes. Other sweets include honeyed, fragrant, soft nougat (without added sugar), almond macaroons, patties stuffed with nuts, and Turkish delight.
