Sauna Session Details

All sessions are 60 minutes long, with 15 minutes in between to clean and reset the space. This hour should give you more than enough time to rotate between plunges in the ocean and 10-15 minute sauna sessions, as well as get changed after. Reach out to info@smallwavesauna.com for any questions!

 

We are located in the Surfer’s End parking lot at Sachuest Beach in Middletown, Rhode Island. There is plenty of free parking in this lot.
