Journeying along the shoreline, we make our way to the very southernmost point of the Attica peninsula, Cape Sounion. This retreat near Athens is renowned for its sandy beaches, seafood eateries, and the arresting wreckage of the Temple of Poseidon. Located on the edge of a cliff that towers over the Aegean Sea, this temple is part of a revered triad of ancient monuments, along with the Acropolis, and the Temple of Aphaea on the island of Aegina in Greece. When viewed on a clear day, these landmarks are perceptible from each other, keeping the same distance as the flight path of a crow. Sounion is also the site where the tragic story unfolds of Aegeus’ fall from the cliffs upon mistakenly believing his son to be dead, based on the sight of unaltered black sails. Consequently, the ‘Aegean Sea’ derived its name from him. Plus, it’s an exquisite spot to take in the sunset, with neatly-outline marble columns encapsulated by the celestial dome and the enchanting blue sea!
