About
Steam and Salt runs two Nordic-inspired wood-fired saunas on the lower promenade at Longsands Beach, Tynemouth. The North Sea is the cold side of the cycle, straight off the sand. Slots are booked by the hour, with beach views the length of them.
Good to know
- Wood-fired heat: softer, heavier löyly than electric, and the smell of the stove is part of the room.
- Right on the sea: expect saltwater dips between rounds, cold even in summer.
- Set up outdoors: weather is part of the experience, so dress for the walk between cabin and water.
- Cold plunge available on site: use it between rounds for the classic contrast cycle.
