The Little Sauna

Perched on the Sandgate seafront, The Little Sea Sauna offers a seafront escape to warm up, slow down and connect. Whether you're here for a solo reset or a session with friends, join us for a wood-fired sauna, a refreshing dip, and the sound of the waves at sunrise or sunset.
We opened in January 2025 and have loved connecting with our community from locals to visitors, yogis to sea swimmers.
