Sydney’s First Seaside Sauna Pops Up In Manly

Play, Sydney / 15 April 2024

There’s literally a hot new way to experience Manly Beach.

Forget the crowded gyms and bustling cafes. If you’re seeking a tranquil escape that nourishes both body and soul, look no further than Manly’s Wharf Precinct. Here, nestled against the backdrop of the iconic Northern Beaches coastline, Sydney’s first pop-up seaside Finnish sauna – Cedar & Salt – is offering a unique opportunity to unwind and reconnect with nature.

Step away from the daily grind and immerse yourself in the warmth of a traditional Finnish sauna, crafted from fragrant cedarwood. The gentle rhythm of waves lapping at the nearby shore provides a calming soundtrack as you breathe in the crisp ocean air. This is the experience that awaits at Cedar & Salt, a pop-up wellness haven promising a dose of serenity amidst the hustle and bustle of Sydney life.

Running for a limited time from April 15th to 28th, the pop-up invites you to embrace the Finnish tradition of “sauna, swim, repeat.” The beautifully crafted wood-fired sauna, accommodating up to ten guests per session, promises a blissful 45-minute escape. The soothing heat will work its magic, promoting relaxation and potentially easing muscle tension.
For those seeking an invigorating contrast, a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters of Manly Beach complements the sauna experience perfectly. Cedar & Salt even recommends a pre-sauna cold plunge for the truly adventurous.

Whether you choose a lunchtime escape, a revitalising sunrise session, or a calming sunset wind-down, there’s a session to suit your mood. Visits are priced at $35, making this a truly accessible and unique way to prioritise your well-being.

The pop-up’s location at the Wharf Precinct at Q Station adds an extra layer of charm. Steeped in history, the precinct provides a glimpse into Sydney’s past, adding a touch of intrigue to your seaside wellness experience.
