What to expect

Enjoy a relaxing drive with our minivan at the Athens riviera and the scenic south coastal road of Attica with a stop at the “Blue Hole” for snorkeling and swimming. Just a breath away from the city center on an amazing drive on the south scenic Attica coastal road, visit Vouliagmeni lake and the Poseidon’s temple at Sounio cape, the second most visited ancient ruin sight in Attica after the Acropolis.
Perched atop Cape Sounion, the Temple of Poseidon is one of Attica’s most compelling sights. Pair the sea god’s sanctuary with swimming and snorkeling (gear included) in the blue Aegean on this intimate door-to-door tour of the Athens Riviera. Swim and snorkel in Lake Vouliagmeni, plunge into the “Blue Well” and soak up the sunshine on beaches including Legrena.
