Löyly

Getting around: On the Hernesaari waterfront south of central Helsinki, about a 20-minute walk or short tram/bus ride.
Hours: Sauna sessions daily roughly 8:00/13:00 to 22:00-23:00; book ahead, especially evenings and weekends.

Loyly is an angular timber-clad building on Helsinki's southern waterfront combining public saunas, a restaurant and direct sea access for the traditional sauna-swim cycle in a design-forward, publicly accessible setting. Its folded wooden facade has become a minor landmark since opening in 2016.

It gets busy — booking ahead avoids being turned away, particularly in the evening.
