SAUNAS

Allas Sea Pool offers not only saunas but also an opportunity to swim in an outside pool right in the heart of Helsinki. Or you can even dip into the sea!

Löyly means the steam coming from the sauna stove. The award-winning building is mostly made out of wood and it's unconventional shape forms a huge outdoor auditorium with a rooftop terrace. Enjoy the saunas (there's a smoke sauna, too!) and have a dip in the sea or go for a drink and admire the views!

Kotiharju sauna is a traditional public sauna opened in late 1920’s. You can book someone to wash your back or even have a cupping (alternative medicine therapy where small cups are put on your skin to create suction and make your blood flow).

The oldest swimming hall in Finland was inaugurated in 1928. They have both wood heated and electric saunas as well as a steam sauna. Beautiful architecture is a fine example of Classicism. Women and men have separate swimming times so check the website before going.

Sompasauna is said to be the most public sauna in Helsinki. Actually, it’s not just one sauna, but a group of small sauna cabins: they are not owned by anyone and whoever can heat them. You probably need to take a taxi there, because Sompasauna is located in the middle of a waste land at the tip of a small peninsula, just outside the city center.

The floating sauna is only open for the private events. Let's see if we could have on!
