Hidden in a quiet cove along the Baltic Sea, just outside the city center, is a traditional Finnish floating sauna offering a unique and magical experience. According to legend, a resident sauna elf lives on the boat and has made sure it is fully equipped for comfort, including a bar fridge to keep drinks cool, a relaxing lounge to take a break from the warmth of the sauna, and a cozy balcony with stunning views across the inviting waters. Guests can alternate between the hot sauna, a refreshing dip in the sea, and relaxing in the lounge or on the balcony while enjoying a drink of their choice. Changing rooms, toilets, and secure storage for valuables are available, making it a safe and convenient experience for solo travelers, couples, and families.
The tour begins at Cafe Regatta, a charming seashore cafe near the Sibelius Monument, where visitors are welcome to arrive early and enjoy a cinnamon bun or hot chocolate while taking in the sea views. From the cafe, it is a short walk to the floating sauna, where the guide provides a welcome and safety briefing and remains available throughout the experience. The small group size ensures a personal and comfortable visit, and those not participating in the sauna can relax at nearby cafes, restaurants, or playgrounds. The experience is designed to be enjoyable and stress-free, allowing everyone to soak in the beauty of the Baltic Sea while embracing a cherished Finnish tradition.

Customer Reviews
Sabina
We had a great time! Note that it is not a private experience and the sauna is used by local people. There was a few other people when we visited and the sauna is small so it was a bit tight. Nonetheless, we had an amazing time. Everyone that was there at the same time we were was super nice. Robbie was a great guide and made sure we had a great experience. He guided us through the process of doing the hot and cold cycles with dipping into the frozen Baltic after some time in the Sauna. It really is an authentic experience and a great way to spend some time while in Helsinki.

We were beginners and hesitant about the cold plunge but with the really awesome guide Robbie we had an amazing experience. You learn to enjoy the hot/cold cycle and feel so relaxed afterwards. I highly recommend you give this Finnish tradition a try. You won’t regret it.

The guide. Robbie is amazing. He treats you like family. I have travelled to many places and this experience is definitely the top. Don’t miss this experience. Once done, you will feel like floating on air.
