Vouliagmeni Lake-Sounio

A refreshing journey to the Athenian Riviera, the magnificent Vouliagmeni Lake and Cape Sounio is the perfect opportunity to enjoy water and sun. Even though the sites are not located in the city center, it is definitely worth visiting them throughout your vacations in Athens. 
Schedule your trip to the watery oasis of the lake, in a natural surrounding filled with wonderful trees and flowers. The lake is one of the most famous thermal springs of the country and you may indulge in a thermal therapeutic experience or just soak under the sun, sipping on a cold beverage and overlooking nature! There are multiple options for you at the lake, including fish spa and wellness therapies, massage sessions and of course recreation with friends and family.

After leaving Vouliagmeni Lake, you will head to Cape Sounio. This is a wonderful place, where the Temple of Poseidon stands tall and reminds us of the God of the sea. When you climb up to the top of the temple, you will be able to admire the Athenian coastline, the deep blue waters and the bright sky. You will learn about the famous Poseidon and you will be able to enjoy the excavations of the wider area, as well as purchase souvenirs from the gift shop. At Sounio, you may also take a swim and enjoy the sandy beaches for a while. It is rejuvenating to combine a visit to a place of historic significance with quality time spent by the sea. 
A day out in the sun, with the Athenian nature unfolded before your eyes and its natural beauty fascinating you. What more could you ask for? A trip to remember always with the most vivid colors!
