Sounio by Day

On the rocky peninsula that projects into the sea at the south-east tip of Attica, the Athenians built sanctuaries to their two most important deities: Poseidon and Athena.
The Temple of Poseidon was built on the summit of the rock, which rises 60m. above the sea. As the god of the sea, Poseidon was very important for ancient Greeks, and the scale of the Temple at Cape Sounio reflects that. Two temples to Athena were erected at a lower level.
Our guide will provide you background information of the places you will visit.
After your visit to the temple you will have time to take your pictures and stop for a coffee or refreshments by the site.

Cape Sounio has long played an important part in Greek mythology and history. Homer was the first to refer to Sounio (Odyssey) as “the sacred cape of the Athenians”.
Apart from an archaeological site, Sounio is a world famous spot at sunset, as it offers a magnificent, panoramic view of the Aegean Sea.
After visiting the Temple of Poseidon, we will admire one of the most amazing sunsets you could ever imagine.
