Sydney's Original Traditional Seaside & Harbour Sauna — Manly & Barangaroo
Cedar & Salt’s Saunas
Our portable wood fire & electric saunas are designed custom-made and can be taken anywhere along the Beaches and Sydneys coastline. With space for up to 12 people, enjoy panoramic views of the ocean, harbour, lakes or rivers as you restore your mind and body in the traditional Finnish löyly heat, post-surf or swim. The handcrafted sauna features backlit solar interior lighting and beautiful timber details including an external rain screen crafted from Japanese cedar battens and inside cladding from New Zealand redwood & European thermally modified Alder. 
Sauna Sessions
Outdoor sauna sessions run for 60 minutes, in communal groups of up to 12 — the perfect amount of time to fully relax and feel the benefits of the heat.
Sessions can be booked privately or hired out for events. Imagine twilight sunset and sunrise sauna sessions on the beachfront, watching the surf roll in.
Cedar & Salt is currently activating at Manly's waterfront for Winter at Manly Lifestyle Club, Manly Wharf, with our harbourside Barangaroo sessions launching July 31 on Sydney Harbour. Head to our Locations page to see current sessions and book your spot.
We recommend starting each session with a cold ocean dip, followed by 15 minutes in the heat of the sauna. Take a rest, then have another swim in the sea. Follow this with another 15 minutes in the sauna before finishing with a final cold dip — then let your body warm up naturally.
Cedar & Salt’s Story
The founder of Cedar & Salt , Rob, is a Freshwater local who was inspired by Nordic sauna culture while road-tripping around Scandinavia and the Arctic Circle.
He noticed a lack of sauna culture in Australia and wanted to bring the experience back to Sydney's Northern Beaches for others to enjoy. And so, Cedar & Salt was born.
The idea is to keep sauna wild fully portable, setting up by the surf and in the snow.
Our name is inspired by the materials used to build the sauna and the seaside location of our sessions.
