Once you reach the cape, you can marvel at the magnificent Temple of Poseidon dedicated to the Greek God of the Sea. The remains are perched on the headland, surrounded on three sides by the sea, and offer one of the most picture-perfect sunsets in Greece.

1 issue with the trip was that we had to pay to get up to poseidon ruins which we were never told of. the trip from Athens was nice on an A/C coach with a few others all english speaking and having audio commentary added to the journey. some nice pictures and destination was worth it.
