It is perched above the sea at a height of almost 60 metres (200 ft). The admission for Temple of Poseidon is 7 Euros Per Person .
Lake Vouliagmeni is a small brackish-water lake fed by underground currents seeping through the mass of Mount Hymettus. The lagoon formed about 2,000 years ago.[1] It was once a large cavern that collapsed following an earthquake. it is supplied with warm seawater (28-35ºCelsius) via an underground channel spreading through a network of flooded caves, so its temperature never drops below 18 °C (usually ranges around 21-24 °C
Its your Lunch time . The driver will tell you about 2-3 traditional taverns that are close to the temple, by the sea and you will decide where you want to have your lunch. Choose Meat or Seafood and enjoy like locals.
