4 HernesaarenrantaSauna + sea water dip, bar and restaurant.
Locals build it for themselves in the city center, but it is too good to be kept in a secret.
Sauna of course is great, swimming in the heated water pool and watching the world covered with snow is just amazing experience.
Highly recommend!
