Norra Vallgrund Beach & Sauna

Description

City of Korsholm – Norra Vallgrund swimming beach+

Description

Norra Vallgrund Beach & Sauna is a public swimming beach at Norra Vallgrund harbour on Raippaluoto (Replot) in Mustasaari, Ostrobothnia. City of Korsholm publishes the municipal beach listing with changing cabins and an outdoor toilet, naming Folkhälsan i Replot as the maintainer you see on site. Raippaluoto lies in the Kvarken archipelago, part of the High Coast / Kvarken Archipelago UNESCO World Heritage Site recognised for its rising landforms and island landscapes. The village harbour sits a few kilometres from the centre with traditional shoreline sheds beside the swimming beach. Korsholms skärgård describes the harbour, guest berths, and village life. Many paddlers start from this harbour toward Kayak to Sommarö Laavu and Kayak to Djupskäret sauna on our map. If you arrive by car with boats on the roof, parking is informal around the harbour rather than one large dedicated lot, so plan a little extra time to leave the car clear of harbour traffic. There is room for a small campfire or grill on the beach. A short overview clip shows the harbour, beach, and sauna. A wood-heated barrel sauna on the beach is booked for private shifts. Only fresh water or rainwater may be thrown on the sauna stones, not seawater, or the heater can rust. Wash the sauna after use and leave it as you would wish to find it, and be considerate of others on the swimming beach. Firewood has been available from a small woodshed on the beach near the swing. In winter the community sometimes maintains an ice hole for cold-water dipping; ask locally about access and etiquette. For swimming water quality bulletins, check Mustasaari’s environmental-health swimming-water pages. If something needs repair at the site, contact the same local people who arrange sauna keys.

Getting there

Drive to Norra Vallgrund harbour in Norra Vallgrund village, Mustasaari. The municipal beach page links a map pin for the harbour. Parking at the harbour is informal; with kayaks on the car roof, allow extra time to find a spot that stays clear of harbour traffic.

Good to know

Swimming water quality for Mustasaari beaches is monitored and results are published on the municipality’s environmental health pages; check the latest bulletin before swimming. Book the barrel sauna in advance. After your sauna, clean up and leave the space tidy for the next group.

Price info

The municipal beach listing does not state a swimming fee. The harbour barrel sauna is rented by private booking; a three-hour shift has been quoted at 10 euros, with firewood from a small shed on the beach. Confirm the current price when you book.

How to pay

Arrange payment when you book or collect the key; confirm details with the local contacts listed for key pickup.
