Ostrobothnia Saunas

There are 3 main things to do here. One rent the sauna (only 40e) for a private group. Come use the beach or BBQ hut for free. On a beautiful sunny day, this is a perfect place for a private gathering. Sauna: Pretty cool sauna to rent. You can rent it for only 40e any day expect Wednesday. So if you want to have a private gathering, invite 20 people, it will just cost 40e. On Wednesday the community heats up the sauna, and the community uses it. But it is also available to the public on that day. You just have to pay 3e and come during their hours: 17.30 and 22.00 (ladies 17.30 - 19.30, men 19.30 - 22.00). To rent the sauna contact: Anders Back (050-5919142), Niklas Hakala (040-9316636) or Kim Sund (050-4120344). About the sauna: It fits 4 guys comfortably at time. There are two benches so you can fit more people, like 4 couples. Also, they provide water for the sauna, but I would suggest brining extra because it is not a lot. Same with wood for the fire, sticks for grilling, etc... Swimming Beach: There are changing rooms, outdoor toilet, beach volleyball court, and swings. During the winter you can ski or ice skate on the ice. Sommarösund barbecue hut: This is free to use any time. You just need to bring your own firewood .

Really secret & cool place in Raippaluoto. A place you would pay to go, but it is free! You can only get here by boat or kayak. Most people take a boat, but if you start at Norra Vallgrund a beach, it is an easy 1 hour kayak trip to this location (when the weather is good). There is a free suana & laavu (grilling hut) The hut is in very good shape, grill net clean, usually an axe & saw to cut wood, but no one stocks wood. So take from the forest or bring your own which most people do. They just use the ocean water for the suana. Remember to fill up the metal container above the suana before using it. It is first come first use on the suana, very few people are there in the week, but many there on the weekends, sometimes the drunks.

A really good starting point for kayak trips in Raippaluoto. You can drive here if you are bringing kayaks, probably leave the car (there is no real parking lot) or to play it safe park it near the closest harbor. The beach is sandy which makes launching your kayaks great. You can reach Sommarö Laavu or djupskäret Suana in 1-2 hours depending on the weather & paddle skills. Very beautiful area. There is a changing room here, an outdoor toilet, and some area where you can start a fire. There is also a very cool barrel suana that can be rented (see info below). Don't forget to rent the suana in the winter. The community usually has an Avanto (ice hole) open for the winter! IMPORTANT SAUNA INFORMATION: Please note that rain only water (from the barrels) may be thrown on the sauna furnace. Not sea water, then, because it causes the sauna oven to rust quickly. If it rained sparingly, it might be wise to take with you a little fresh water. The person who uses the sauna must wash it out after use, leaving it in the condition you would like to find it before a sauna trip. Due consideration should be given to others who are on the swimming beach at the same time. If something breaks or if there is anything else that needs to be fixed, please contact the above mentioned people.
