Borrowed from wikipedia:
Immediately to the south of town and very close to the sea, a rare geophysical formation is to be found that gave the suburb its modern name: Lake Vouliagmeni (Sunken Lake), a small fresh-water lake fed by underground currents seeping through the mass of Mount Hymettus. It was once a large cavern that collapsed following an earthquake, probably during the early Middle Ages.
The outline of the collapsed cavern roof can be clearly discerned from a distance. The lake stands at a 40 cm elevation, and its water maintains a constant 24 degrees Celsius temperature year round. It continues deep inside the mountain in an underwater cave never fully explored, as its end seems impossible to trace even by employing sonar detection. Many underwater expeditions have been carried out in order to chart it, and a few amateur divers have drowned trying. Because of its constant and comfortable water temperature, the lake functions as a year-round spa.

This is one of my favorite places,all over the city. Right infront of the Vouliagmeni Dock and over the sea level,is a 2 floor building with outstanding sea view. On ground level there is the Moorings restaurant with very nice mediteranean and seafood,also with reasonable prices, but the main reason i brough you here.
On first floor there is the almost open deck of moorings.With 3 sides view, one overlooks a small bay,the other overlooks Aegeon sea and the third, the luxurious and huge boats of Vouliagmeni citizens, makes you believe you are sailing with one of those.Try one of the front sofas and i'm sure there will be hours past before you leave from there
