The Nordic sauna experience in Finland (and swimming in the Baltic Sea)
Activity
€ 50 - 100
During my city trip to Helsinki, I experienced the Nordic sauna at Löyly Sauna Helsinki. Spoiler alert: It was my best experience!
It consists of 3 saunas, one of which has a view of the sea. Between each sauna - when you reach the point where you can't take the heat anymore - it is recommended to take a short dip in the Baltic Sea. The benefits are incredible: better blood circulation, feeling toned, antibodies and strengthening the immune system.
And believe me, I have never felt more alive than after this sauna and these little dips in the sea.
The team is very friendly, the place is magnificent, clean and warm.
And on top of that, they have a restaurant with a magnificent view of the sea. On the menu, one of their favorite dishes: salmon soup.
There is an area with an open fire and chairs around it.
Entrance was 23 euros/person for 2 hours and the price includes a towel, a cloth to sit on and shampoo/shower gel.
I highly recommend this trip because it was one of my happiest moments despite the sea temperature being 1°C at that time.
