One of the most colourful squares in the Cyclades....the Chora on Serifos!

Take a seat....the owner will be back to tell you what his fishermen caught this morning! It may be grilled sardines or fried calamari or fresh fish cooked over the coals with a Greek salad of course! Red or white wine or would you prefer a beer? Lazy days spent here on Ganema Beach #serifos!

Unfortunately I wasn’t here on my little instagram break but as many of you know who follow my stories, I was in eating my way through Melbourne!
As I plan next year’s trip to the Greek Islands, I want to continue my series on my favourite Greek Islands...it’s time to take you to beautiful Serifos. Livadi, the port town, is a wonderful base, it’s easy to explore the island from here and to head up to the Chora, that you can see on top of the hill in the distance, at night. One of the smaller gems of the Cyclades? Are you planning your next years travels?

There’s quite a few little beaches hidden in the bays of Folegandros’ rocky coastline, all with stunning clear blue water to swim in! The best way to reach this bay, Katergo Bay, is by boat that leaves from the main port. A boat tour around the island stops for a swim here too!

A favourite spot on the island of Folegandros and a wonderful backdrop to one of the most beautiful village squares in the Cyclades....where small meandering alleyways lead into the three connecting tree covered squares that are the centre of the village. Swipe to see the square in front of the wall at night!

Lunch views on Folegandros......head to Agali and take the ferry to Agios Nikolaos or if you’re feeling fit, walk fifteen minutes over the headland taking in the stunning views on the way!

Inside the Kastro (castle).... It’s the heart of the Chora, the old medieval centre of Folegandros where some of the houses that people still live in date back over a thousand years. It was built to protect the residents from attacks though I would have thought fact that it is on the edge of a 200m cliff would be a deterrent in itself!

Agali....a beautiful little bay at the bottom of a steep hill on Folegandros. You’ll spend a bit of time here if you’re staying on the island. A boat leaves from here to two nearby beaches....the isolated beach of Livadi or Agios Nikolaos....a popular beach with a great taverna (Papalagi) Your other option is to soak up the sun here before wandering up the stairs to lunch.....

Folegandros has one of the prettiest centres (Chora) of the islands....three tree covered squares run into each other creating fabulous eating spaces and a wonderful atmosphere......

Classic Greece....and a favourite memory to farewell Paros with! Day or night there was always something happening in the fabulous little fishing boat harbour at Naoussa! Swipe to see the harbour at night.

Can you imagine yourself sitting here watching the world go by? Tempting as it is, checking out the main street of Antiparos is just one of the many things to do on a day trip to this island that’s a quick ferry ride from Paros. There’s the Kastro (castle)to wander around, caves to explore, beaches to enjoy and fresh seafood to be eaten....lunch at Captain Pipernos at Agios Giorgos is my choice!

Lefkes is a pretty bill top village in the centre of Paros. It’s definitely worth a visit to wander through the narrow alley ways, admire the beautiful old buildings and chat to locals!
