Clifford Jack "Cliff" Serwa (born December 23, 1935) was a businessman and political figure in British Columbia. He represented Okanagan South from 1986 to 1991 and Okanagan West from 1991 to 1996 in the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia as a Social Credit member.

Of these seven, only Serwa completed his term as a Social Credit member, leaving him the last member of that party to serve in the legislature.

He was co-founder of the Big White Ski Resort in Kelowna. In 1977, Serwa married Lois Rae Hanson. He served in the provincial cabinet as Minister of Environment. Serwa lives in Kelowna.
