Elie Seaside Sauna
Elie Harbour, East Neuk of Fife
Elie Seaside Sauna sits on the dunes at Elie Harbour in the East Neuk of Fife, operating two wood-fired saunas — 'Dune' (private hire, up to 8 guests) and 'Shore' (individual seats or full hire) — both off-grid and heated by woodburning stoves to 70–100°C. Full-length, heat-tempered glass panels face Woodhaven Bay, with direct access to Elie Harbour for sea swimming between rounds. The operation, founded in 2022 by Judith Dunlop, was the first public seaside sauna in Scotland and holds Approved Sauna Operator status from the British Sauna Association.
