About
3 handcrafted wood-fired saunas, the Barrel, the Box and the Snug, right beside Tower Bay Beach in Portrane, north Dublin. 60-minute shared sessions, with the Irish Sea a short walk away for cold water contrast. The coastal setting is the draw; the saunas are the reason to stay.
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.
- 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.
