Where the raw power of the elements meets deep restorative heat.

Welcome to the Isle of Skye’s first Scandinavian-style sea sauna. A unique wood-fired experience for those seeking natural wellness. Let the elements shape you.

Reflect & Recover

Begin the day or end your adventure embraced by the heat. Staffin Sea Sauna is a meeting point of land and sea, a place of wilderness that offers stillness, a place to unwind. It is a place to enjoy the ancient ritual of extremes, a place where the elements can be both braved and tamed to rejuvenate body, mind and soul.

Embrace the seasons and the beauty of the isle’s ever-changing climate and let the sauna embrace you and become the  refuge from which to brave the cold waters of sea or shower.

Recover and reflect surrounded by the magnificence of the landscape, with panoramic views towards Staffin and Flodigarry Island with Harris and Lewis in the distance. Steam, plunge, repeat to revive your body and reset your senses.

Come and enjoy our pop-up sauna sessions throughout June and July in the lead up to the arrival of our Scandinavia style sauna in August.
