Itinerar

  1. Avenue of Poseidon (Poseidornos)

    On your way towards the Temple of Poseidon, you will have the potentiality to absorb the southern suburbs of Athens, such as Old Faliron, Alimos and Glyfada. It is an undeniable fact that these areas are considered to be the most up-scaled ones of Attica. Moreover, the traveler is given the opportunity to observe coastline of Attica full of private and public marines, shops and cafes. We need 1 hour and 15 to reach Cape Sounion.

  2. Glyfada

    Glyfada is the capital of the Athens Riviera. Glyfada offers an amazing view to the Saronic Gulf. It is the reasons why Glyfada is the ultimate summer hot spot for the Athenians! Its trademark is of course its marina, a mega-yacht destination that infuses a cosmopolitan flair to the areas. Beautiful coasts, recreation parks, playgrounds, shopping centres and stylish restaurants are there to keep up your summer carefree mood.

  3. Lake Vouliagmeni

    15 min

    A short stop for pictures will be made at Vouliagmeni Lake. The lagoon formed about 2,000 years ago. It was once a large cavern that collapsed following an earthquake. The outline of the collapsed cavern roof can be clearly discerned from a distance. The lake has quite unique environmental conditions: it is supplied with warm seawater (28-35ºCelsius) via an underground channel spreading through a network of flooded caves, so its temperature never drops below 18 °C (usually ranges around 21-24 °C), whereas a freshwater spring reduces its salinity to brackish levels (14.5-18 psu). Because of its constant warm water temperature and its rich content in hydrogen sulphide, the lake functions as a spa since the end of the 19th century.

  4. Varkiza

    Varkiza is a picturesque sea-side village in the middle of the way to Cape Sounion. The area is very popular to Athenians for short excursions due to its beaches, shops and clubs.

  5. Lagonisi

    Lagonisi is a seaside residential area in the southern part of Kalyvia Thorikou in East Attica. It is situated close to the shore and on a peninsula by the Saronic Gulf.Restaurant facilities, cafeterias and bars are located mainly at the heart of Lagonissi.We start to head back to Athens again. We need 1 hour and 15 min to reach the center.

  6. Sounio Beach

    1 h 30 min

    Sounio Beach offers crystal-clear waters, golden sand, and stunning views beneath the Temple of Poseidon.

    A peaceful spot to relax, swim, and enjoy the natural beauty of the Athenian coastline, just moments away from one of Greece’s most iconic landmarks.

  7. Temple of Poseidon

    45 min Intrarea nu este inclusă

    The Temple of Poseidon is built on top of the hill, exactly at the meeting point of the Saronic Sea with the Aegean Sea. The temple was dedicated to God Poseidon, the lord of the Sea and it was there where all the sailors offered a last sacrifice to appease God Poseidon before leaving the safety of the Saronic Golf. According to Greek mythology, the Cape Sounion was the point from which Greek King Aegeus flung himself off the cliff to his death, upon the mistaken belief that his son had died. This ancient tragic tale involves a theme that is still used in modern story-telling today.
