Paros to Serifos SeaJets Ferry Schedule
SeaJets may also operate on this ferry route from year to year. Often times it is in the earlier and later parts of the year. Their ferries tend to be a fair bit more expensive though!Indirect Ferries to Serifos from Paros
If the dates that the direct Paros to Serifos ferries sail don't line up for you, it might be worth considering taking an indirect route.
The obvious choice here would be to take a ferry from Paros to Sifnos, swap vessels, and then take a ferry from Sifnos to Serifos.
Of course, this journey will take you longer, and will certainly be more expensive. You may also need to spend a night on Sifnos if the ferry connections don't work out quite right.
