Heit Haugesund Sauna is beautifully located on Risøy by Smedasundet in the centre of Haugesund. Two genuine wood-fired Finnish saunas (Harvia) offer panoramic views towards the quay on the opposite side of the strait, with direct access to a refreshing saltwater dip.
The Experience
Step into one of two traditional wood-fired saunas, each accommodating up to 9 people. The intense heat of the Finnish sauna contrasts perfectly with a plunge into the cool waters of Smedasundet. With views stretching across the strait, this is the essence of urban Norwegian sauna culture.
