Braving the icy waves on the 25th?

If you’re dreaming of a Christmas Day swim but you’re concerned about frostbite afterwards, there are a few sauna options now available to book at local beaches.

The Coastal Cabin at Garryvoe Beach, The Sweaty Sanctuary on Inch Beach in East Cork and The Sauna Snugg on Garrylucas Beach are a few coastal gems that have just dropped their Christmas opening hours.

The Coastal Cabin is making waves by offering a festive 9 am to 1 pm slot on Christmas Day in Garryvoe. If you want to swap the cosy living room for a beachside sauna experience you can now book by DMing them through their Instagram page.
