About
A clifftop sauna at Canty Bay near North Berwick, above Quarrel Sands, with views across the Firth of Forth. 2 saunas, one wood-fired and one electric, plus a plunge pool and Drift Coffeehouse next door. 30 minutes from Edinburgh but it feels properly remote.
Good to know
- Cold plunge available on site: use it between rounds for the classic contrast cycle.
- Set up outdoors: weather is part of the experience, so dress for the walk between cabin and water.
- Right on the sea: expect saltwater dips between rounds, cold even in summer.
- Set in nature, away from the city, so bring a car or plan the transfer in advance.
- Wood-fired heat: softer, heavier löyly than electric, and the smell of the stove is part of the room.
