About
A single wood-fired barrel sauna for 8 on the Portobello Beach promenade, with the North Sea a few steps away. Community sessions are around £13 a head; private hire gets you the whole barrel for your group. The simplicity is the point: sand, sea, heat.
Good to know
- 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.
