SAUNA / COLD WATER SWIM
In addition to the official WINTERTIDE event on Saturday 30th November, we are excited to share that a brand new sauna will be popping up for the day in Victoria Park.
Alongside the sauna, Buckfastleigh Pool will also be open for cold swims and Voyager Coffee will be selling their speciality hand roasted coffee. If you have yet to visit, Victoria Park is also home to a great park for children of all ages and includes a skate park and a brand new children’s play area.
IROKO SAUNA & WILD SPA
For one day only, this brand new community sauna will be coming to Buckfastleigh. Experience the multiple health benefits of deep heat and cold immersion in this beautiful hand crafted sauna and ice-filled plunge pool.
They will be parked up outside Buckfastleigh Open Air Pool, in Victoria Park, offering communal 55 minute sauna sessions, on the hour between 10am and 6pm.
The sauna is a mixed space with up to 9 people at any one session. Pre-orders now closed - turn up to the park on the day to book your space.
