Saunas in Hobart, TAS

Hobart is the heart of Tasmania's wood-fired sauna culture. Floating saunas on sheltered bays, mobile saunas on the waterfront at Sandy Bay, and a sauna boat in Kettering all use the cold waters of the Derwent estuary and the D'Entrecasteaux Channel as their plunge.

With water temperatures that stay cool year-round, a sauna plunge in southern Tasmania is the real thing, especially in winter when the water can be bracingly cold. Most Hobart saunas are wood-fired, small and run to a schedule, so sessions book out quickly during winter and festival season. Bring warm layers and a beanie for the walk back after your dip.

Getting around

A car is the easiest way to reach Hobart's waterfront and channel-side saunas; Metro Tasmania buses cover the city and inner suburbs.
