Where king Aegea fell to his death after finding out about the death of his son. the aegean sea was named in his honor.
Ακρωτήρι Σουνίου Sounio , Attica Greece
One of the most beautiful places in the world! Perfect view during sunset and places to swim nearby. A lot of commercials have been shot here I.e. Amstel Greece
Sunsets at this ancient location during the summer are sublime. Sadly the administration of this place boots you out as soon as the sun has finished setting.
Truly breathtaking, the Temple is the perfect opportunity to understand how ancient Greeks chose the locations for their temples .
A beautiful location with a lot of history. A view on to the Aegean Sea that is majestic. If the weather is good you can see for miles!
Great spot to end your seaside route and amazing view , especially during sunset . There is a cafeteria just outside the temple . Found the entrance fee a bit expensive (8€ - 4€ for students).
The best sunset of Athens riviera and one of the most magnificent views towards the Aegean sea . Besides the temple , a must see is the cliff, where according to legend, Aegeas fell of the sea and died.
One of the most breathtaking Ancient Greek temples in an amazing spot full of history vibes. Go there on sunset for an amazing experience
One of the most beautiful spots on earth to watch a sunset ! Remember that’s an archaeological site and always closes officially exactly on sunset , whatever the sunset time is set that day.
You are gonna pay 10 euro just to watch the sunset . Ruins are not that interesting and very crowded . So go here only if you are certainly the sunset is going to be amazing (my, wasn’t).
Ideal place for a day trip! Wonder around the historic site and enjoy amazing views over the Aegean! There is a nice cafe next to the temple
An impressive monument . The Temple of Poseidon was the last piece of the ancient Athenians’ homeland every time they sailed into the Aegean. Read more
The Temple of Poseidon , god of the sea as is written by Greek Mythology. Standing atop you will see a beautiful view and stiff cliffs overlooking the Aegean Sea .
You’re coming to the edge of land and in front of you is just wonderful sea and behind great temple . I could stay here forever!
Crystal blue sky and sea! Culture and history! One of the most representative places in Greece . Don't miss it.
What's there to say? Bring a date here for an unforgettable, romantic sunset . Plenty of choices nearby for drinks and food afterwards.
The ticket is too expensive for the site, but you can enjoy the view for the cafe place nearby! Definitely worth a visit!
Worth the trip. Stunning views overlooking the ocean. Go near sunset for a truly magical experience.
Poseidon at Sounion is one of the most important sancturaries in Greece . First mentioned in the Odyssey & has even been visited by Menelaos. Belly dancers will really appreciate its sacred energy.
ONE of The best sunsets in The world... Where ancient history and wild nature meets in an explosion of red and orange !
2,500-year-old marbles , wonderful view of the Aegean Sea , nice but pricey coffee shop right under the temple .
There is a metro bus you can catch here from the city . Annonisos is a great beach to cool off afterwards.
One of the places to be in Attica ! Not to be missed! You'll be speechless...
Splendid site especially on a cloudy autumn day. Do not miss the two centuries old graffittis by various travelers on the marbles . Try to spot the one by Lord Byron!
In summer the visit hours are until 8 pm
Amazing scenic view !
Really pretty view ... the 8 Euro entrance is a joke though...
Go late in the afternoon The sunset and twilight falling on the temple is amazing.
I’ve never seen beautiful place such as this one!
Amazing view . Great for sunset
I had to learn a new word to describe this amazing place: Picturesque
€8 entrance is worth it to visit once
God of the sea just next to the sea. Mesmerizing
