Serifos on Google Maps.
In the first part of the report of the island of Serifos we saw the tourist area of an island already little frequented by tourism. In this second part we see the harshest and wildest part of the island, the western coast, with its high cliffs and abandoned mining areas with what little remains of the miners' settlements, the open-pit mines, the loading ports of minerals on ships. A visit that during a holiday on the island deserves to be done by scooter or rental car.
