“Cape Sounion is a promontory located at the southernmost tip of the Attica peninsula in Greece. It is renowned for the Temple of Poseidon, an ancient Greek temple dedicated to the god of the sea. The temple was constructed around 440 BC and is perched on a cliff overlooking the Aegean Sea. The Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion is one of Greece’s major archaeological sites and a popular tourist destination due to its stunning location and historical significance. The temple is well-preserved, with several of its Doric columns still standing.

Visitors to Cape Sounion and the Temple of Poseidon can enjoy panoramic views of the Aegean Sea and the surrounding landscape. The site is particularly popular for watching the sunset, as the temple is beautifully illuminated by the setting sun. Located about 70 kilometers (43 miles) south of Athens, Cape Sounion and the Temple of Poseidon make for a popular day trip from the Greek capital.

After exploring the Temple of Poseidon, you can visit a Greek tavern by the sea to have lunch while enjoying the view of the Mediterranean. Following your meal, you will return to Athens along the same relaxing coastal route, and your friendly Greecetraveltaxi driver will drop you off at your hotel or apartment.”
