The Lavrio Technological and Cultural Park

Recreation

Lavrio and its surrounding area is renowned for its geological wealth – most notably silver and a range of unique prime and secondary minerals – that dates back to the Golden Ages of Classical Greece, c. 3,500 BC.

The Town of Lavrio

Recreation

10 km away

The historical town of Lavrio, 10km from the Resort, is the third major port in Attica. As well as ferry-links to the Cycladic islands, the town offers many shops and cafes, silver mines, mineral museum and access to the Theatre of Thorikos – the oldest ancient theatre in the country.

Temple of Poseidon

Historical landmark

3 km away

The Temple of Poseidon is situated directly opposite the Resort and is in plain view from several kilometres. Built to honour the ancient sea god, the temple dates back to 444-440 BC and was constructed from local white marble in Doric style. It was the symbol of Athenian power and an important religious and maritime icon of ancient times – marking both the last sign of civilisation and the first sign of home for generations of Athenian seafarers. According to legend, Cape Sounio is the spot where Aegeus, king of Athens, leapt to his death off the cliff, thus giving his name to the Aegean Sea. The English poet, Lord Byron has carved his name on one of the front pillars of the temple. Visit the Temple via the road from the hotel or by anchoring in the small sheltered bay at the foot of the temple's cliffs and then hiking up to the monument. The views of sunset seen through the temple’s ruins are regarded as one of the most celebrated sights in all of Greece.

At Greece’s Mythical Cape where the wonders of ancient Greece embrace the glorious sea, drawing towards a cosmopolitan coastline dotted with luxurious bungalows, lavish villas and views to the gorgeous Temple. This is Cape Sounio; not just a resort, it is an experience. Cape Sounio embodies a world of privacy and natural beauty basking in the glow of one of antiquity’s most celebrated monuments, The Temple of Poseidon. The location of the Cape at the tip of Attica – and similarly, as the Gateway to both Athens and the Aegean. Rising on the slopes of the bay, above Cape Sounio Grecotel Boutique Resort, lies the Sounio National Park, revered for its scenic beauty and rich geological history.
