★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you search for something different from Ancient Greece this is the place. It’s different it’s well maintained it’s not crowded and if you pass by after 19 o’clock you would see beautiful sunset or see horizon with Poseidon temple.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a great touristy stop not too far from Athens. Getting photos at sunset is highly recommended. Do get there before they close because they won't let you in no matter how close to the closing time it is.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful, I went early as I was busy however there are tours and bookings which allow you to go in the afternoon/evening to see the sun set, it's meant to be even more beautiful so if you can book the sunset tour if you can ?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Well worth it, arrived at noon and stayed till just after sunset. Probably the most beautiful sunset I've ever seen; pictures don't do it justice. I went towards the end of January; it was sweater weather but still lovely for walking around or sitting to read a book.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Can definitely recommend visiting this place by rental car. Nice ride next to the shore for 1-1,5 hour from Athens.
All in all it is just some pilar remains of the Temple of Poseidon and some stone remains of houses and the harbour that used to be there.
Cafe and toilet is also close by.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ the coastal drive and the sunset make the visit to the Temple of Poseidon a complete package!
The cafe has a great setting.
Make sure you get through the gates 30 -45 min before sunset as they will close .

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If I’m being honest I enjoyed this much more than the Acropolis because there were so many less people there and the view of the water was amazing.
You can hike all the way to the end of the peninsula and it’s quite a lovely hike.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An absolute beautiful site. The drive is gorgeous. We visited at sunset and it is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. There is a yummy little restaurant I Def recommend eating at. If you have the chance definitely go see.
