Tours & Trips » Half Day Tours » Cape Sounio tour

Driving along the coastal road of "Posidonos", one of the nicest coastlines of all Greece, you will pass by the beautiful harbors of Glyfada, Vouliagmeni and Varkiza. The ultimate place for sailboats, yachting, sunshine and blue seas! A splendid view of the Saronic Gulf.
We arrive at Cape Sounio, the southernmost point of the European mainland.

Cape Sounio

Panoramic view of all the Aegean sea, from the top of the outstanding rock a monument to the history of the temple of Poseidon.
Sounio was believed to be the home of the god of the sea, Poseidon. Legends and myths alongside reality! The temple of the goddess Athena was also just beside this.

The area is known as "Lavrio" and it is one of the richest in metals and minerals. Here ancient silver-lead mines are located. The sunrise seen from Cape Sounio became famous as it was shown in the "Millenium World TV Show 2000".
The Olympic Marina and the "minerals museum" are also worth a visit.
