Explore Sauna Culture in Scandinavia

The sauna has become a cherished tradition for people in Scandinavia, where its popularity extends far beyond just a place for relaxation. In this blog post, we will delve into why sauna culture is so deeply rooted in Scandinavia and what makes the sauna a central part of people's lifestyle and well-being.

Why Is the Sauna So Popular in Scandinavia?

  • Historical Tradition: The sauna has a long history in Scandinavia, where it has traditionally been used as a place for social interaction and rituals. Its original use was linked to cleansing and healing.
  • Cold and Darkness: In the cold and dark winters of Scandinavia, the sauna provides a warm and bright contrast. It has become a place to escape the cold and the short daylight hours, making the sauna a welcomed retreat.
  • Physical and Mental Benefits: The sauna is perceived as health-promoting, and its ability to promote relaxation and improve circulation is particularly valuable in the Nordic countries.
  • Sauna Culture in Sweden

    Sweden has a long history of sauna bathing, and sauna culture is strongly present. Many private homes and recreational facilities have their saunas, and it is not uncommon to include sauna baths as part of the daily routine.

    How Often Do Scandinavians Sauna?

    The frequency of sauna baths varies, but many Scandinavians integrate sauna baths into their lifestyles. Some sauna regularly, while others see the sauna as a special treat during weekends and special occasions.

    Is the Sauna the Secret to Finland's Happiness?

    The sauna is an integral part of Finnish culture and is considered a contributing factor to the overall well-being of Finns. The social aspect of sauna bathing, combined with its ability to promote relaxation, has made the sauna a crucial part of the Finnish lifestyle.

    In summary, sauna culture in Scandinavia is deeply rooted in tradition, health, and a pursuit of relaxation. If you want to partake in this cultural and health-promoting practice, we offer sauna tents designed to provide an authentic sauna experience in the comfort of your own space.

    Heat between the sessions

    After each surf session, they gathered in our Sauna Tent. It became a place to regain warmth, rest their muscles, and talk through what they had just experienced. Maybe even reflect on why they truly chase those perfect waves.

    And for us, that's exactly what the sauna is all about. Not just heat – but the rhythm of recovery, performance, and community. A place to land.

    That our Sauna Tent got to be part of such a journey – together with some of the world's most dedicated surfers – is something we are incredibly proud of.

    Who are they?

    Freddie Meadows

    is Sweden's most experienced professional surfer. After ten years on the competition scene, he chose to follow his heart and start exploring Scandinavian coastlines – with the goal of finding world-class waves in our northern waters.

    Nic von Rupp

    Hailing from Portugal, he is known for surfing some of the biggest waves ever at NazarΓ©. He is a multiple championship winner, documentary filmmaker, and has twice been nominated for the World Surf League's "Big Wave Performance of the Year."

    Andrew Cotton

    Born in the United Kingdom, he is a pioneer of Big Wave Surfing in Europe. He has towed surfing legends into record-breaking waves, gained global recognition, and pushed the boundaries of what British surfing can be – while balancing his career with life as a parent of young children.

    Sauna + surf = an obvious combination

    There is something special about the contrast between cold and heat, performance and stillness. The chaos of the waves meets the calm of the tent. And for those who surf in Arctic conditions, the sauna is not a luxury – it is a necessity.

    Where will the next wave happen? We don’t know. And we’re not supposed to know. But one thing is certain: our Sauna Tent will be there.
