Athens → Cape Sounion
Athens to Cape Sounion by licensed Tesla taxi
Cape Sounion is the southern tip of Attica, where the Temple of Poseidon stands on a cliff above the Aegean. It is the classic late-afternoon drive from Athens, and the coastal road there is half the reason to go.
The route
Getting from Athens to Cape Sounion.
The route follows the Athens Riviera south through Glyfada, Vouliagmeni and Varkiza before opening onto the coast road.
Most guests leave in the afternoon so that they reach the temple before sunset.
A shorter version of the same drive works well as a coastal transfer to the Riviera hotels or marinas.
Possible stops
- GlyfadaThe busiest of the Riviera suburbs, good for a coffee stop.
- VouliagmeniPine-backed bays and the warm waters of Lake Vouliagmeni.
- Coast road viewpointsOpen sea views on the final stretch towards the cape.
- Temple of PoseidonThe marble columns above the cliff, best in the last hour of daylight.

The Tesla on this route
Our licensed yellow Tesla Model Y taxi makes this a comfortable journey.

The car waits with your bags while you walk the sites.
