A one-of-a-kind beach sauna experience in Aberdeen

OUR STORY
From Bahia, Brazil to The Granite City

Fabio Barbosa, a native of Brazil, has infused a taste of his tropical homeland into the heart of Aberdeen with his innovative creation - Barbossauna. Transforming a humble horsebox into a seaside sanctuary, Fabio's vision has captured the imagination of locals and tourists alike following its inception in August 2023.


Since opening our doors, Fabio and his loyal companion Rocky, the sauna's canine mascot, have warmly welcomed tourists from as far flung places as Finland (the birthplace of sauna!) and Australia, as well as our cherished local guests. Together, they ensure that everyone feels at home at our year-round sanctuary by the sea.

Utilising a wood burner to achieve temperatures ranging from 70 to 95 degrees Celsius, Barbossauna offers a customisable sauna experience tailored to individual preferences. Fabio's warm welcome and hospitality ensures that every visit to Barbossauna is nothing short of magical.

​

With breathtaking views of Aberdeen beach as the backdrop, guests are invited to unwind and rejuvenate their mind, body, and soul in the tranquil ambiance of Barbossauna. Whether seeking a moment of relaxation or a post-workout recovery session, the health benefits of the wood-burning sauna are undeniable.

"It’s a stress relief and it helps you to sleep well."

For many, a session at Barbossauna isn't just about the sauna; it's about embracing the full beachfront experience. Guests can complement their sauna session with a refreshing dip in the invigorating waters of the North Sea at full moon or a leisurely afternoon stroll along the shore. And let's not forget Rocky, the friendly Labrador Retriever, who adds an extra layer of charm to the Barbossauna experience.
