Serra (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈsɛʁɐ]) is a municipality in the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil.

Serra, the seat of the municipality, is to the north of the characteristic Mestre Álvaro mountain which juts out of the coastal lowlands, and which is said to look like a small mountain range or "serra", in Portuguese, which is where the town and municipality got its name.

Serra has five districts (distritos): Serra-Capital (or Serra-Sede), Carapina, Calogi, Nova Almeida and Queimado.

Another important urban area is that of Jacaraípe, on the coast 20 km north of Vitória.

Other smaller fishing villages such as Manguinhos are also close enough for day trips and are popular destinations for the locals.
