Cold baths & saunas in Malmö
A dip in the sea and then into the warm sauna – few things make Malmö folk feel as fresh and happy. Cold bathing is a true Malmö tradition, and winter is high season.
New to it? Start with a short dip, warm up in the sauna and take it at your own pace. The bathhouses charge entry and have their own opening hours, so check their pages before you go.
