- Temple of Poseidon - Embark on an exclusive sunset excursion to Cape Sounion. The journey begins with a scenic drive along the Athens Riviera. As you relax, take in the stunning vistas of the Saronic Gulf and pass by some of Athens’ most picturesque suburbs, including Glyfada, Vouliagmeni, and Varkiza.
Upon reaching Cape Sounion, you’ll explore the 5th century B.C. Temple of Poseidon, perched with a breathtaking panoramic view of the Aegean Sea (on a clear day, multiple islands are visible). Cape Sounion has been significant in Greek mythology and history, first appearing in the Odyssey as the final safe haven before Poseidon wreaked havoc on the Greek fleet returning home. Poseidon, the god of the sea, held great importance for the ancient Greeks, and the grandeur of his temple at Cape Sounion is a testament to that.
Following your visit to the Temple, having soaked in the site’s beauty, history, and culture, prepare to witness one of the most spectacular sunsets imaginable. As the sun gently meets the sea, it’s the ideal time for a glass of wine, followed by a meal at a picturesque seafront tavern nearby.
Savor the expansive views of the Aegean and capture memorable photographs. On the return trip, indulge in a delectable waffle with ice cream, a local secret.
