Hot Rocks Sauna Club
Seattle, United States
About
A wood-fired cedar barrel sauna that sets up on the shore at Alki Beach Park in West Seattle, with the cold plunge taken in Puget Sound. Sessions run Thursday to Saturday and the barrel seats a dozen or so; the exact spot on the beach follows the operator's parks permit. The barrel can also be hired privately.
Good to know
- Cold plunge available on site: use it between rounds for the classic contrast cycle.
- Mobile operator: the sauna travels, so the location is part of the booking. Check the current site before you arrive.
- 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.
- Wood-fired heat: softer, heavier löyly than electric, and the smell of the stove is part of the room.
Hours
