Main Info
About 70 km from Athens, Cape Sounio is always a good idea for a half-day excursion.
Famous for the Temple of Poseidon which is one of the most important archaeological sites of Attica.
The coastal route here is one of the most beautiful, while the unparalleled beauty and exquisite location of the Temple, at the southeast end of Cape Sounio, impresses whoever visits it. Beyond the temple in Sounio, you can enjoy wonderful natural landscapes and one of the most beautiful sunsets.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
This 5-hour excursion begins with a pick-up from your accommodation in Athens.
Enjoy a comfortable 50-minute drive along the coastal road, in an air-conditioned minivan.
Take in views of idyllic beaches and small villages along the way.
A swim stop is necessary here, so enjoy the opportunity (blue flag beaches are very enticing!)
The Cape Sounion Temple, dedicated to Poseidon, the God of the Seas, stands at a unique spot with an unlimited view to the Saronic islands and sometimes even to the Peloponnese.
Cape Sounion is also linked with the ‘Black-Sail boat, myth’.
Take enough time here to relax, to gaze at the magical and magnificent blue carpet of the Aegean Sea and experience a superb and spectacular Sunset. Make sure you’ve got your camera with you!
We take the road back to Athens. On the left-hand side, we constantly see the colorful sunlight glittering in the sea.
Optionally, we can have a soft drink at one of the coastal cafés.
Our tour comes to an end with a drop off at your hotel in Athens.
