Hugely Populary and one of the best communities around.
Love swimming outside but hate the cold that can often come with it? Swim and Sauna is for you, every Sunday morning and Tuesday and Thursday Evenings jump into our Mallow Lake and swim, with lifeguards on duty at all times it’s the best and safest way to get into outdoor swimming. By 10am you will probably need a break from the swim so drink a gallon of water and then it’s time to hit our saunas! They have been warming up just for you since early morning and we think by 10am they will be nice and toasty to warm you up.
How it works:
- If you are swimming first you can arrive anytime from 9am. The saunas will be ready from 9am on so plan out your swim session around the Sauna opening.
- Bring togs, two towels, flip-flops/wet shoes, lots of water, a dry robe or poncho is recommended.
- Swim to your hearts content
- Jump into the sauna from 9am Saturday & Sunday (max 15mins before you MUST take a break from the heat)
- Try out some optional Hot & Cold therapy or go from sauna to swimming if you wish.
- Drink plenty of water
- Have lots of fun!
- You do not need to submerge into our lake, but you must take a break from the sauna every 10 to 15 mins. Check out our Sauna Recovery for another option.
