Good to know

Which beaches in Serifos face the sunset?

The beaches listed here face west or southwest, so the sun sets over the water in front of you. Arrive before sunset to find a spot and enjoy the light.

Anything to know for an evening visit?

Wind can pick up or drop in the evening, and remote beaches have no lights. Check live wind and waves in the app and bring a torch for the walk back.

When is the sea calmest here?

Across 6 of the beaches on this page, the open water in front of them is typically 0.71 m in June, 0.77 m in July and 0.80 m in August when the meltemi is at its strongest, and 0.81 m in September. June is the calmest month of the season. We calculate these figures ourselves from European Copernicus wave-model data at 4.2 km resolution. They describe the sea offshore, not the shelter of an individual cove — a bay protected by a headland will usually be calmer than this.

How warm is the water, month by month?

Off 6 of the beaches on this page the sea is typically 19.0 °C in May, 22.5 °C in June, 24.2 °C in July, 24.8 °C in August and 24.3 °C in September — ideal at the height of summer, mild in June. By October it is 22.2 °C. August is the warmest month. Satellite measurements, 1995–2024, from a sea cell about 5 km offshore; shallow bays usually run warmer than this.

Wind and waves change every day. See live conditions for any of these beaches before you drive out.
