At the waterfront in Ula, a former pilot and fishing harbour between Larvik and Sandefjord, you can relax in a sauna overlooking the sea. When you're ready to cool off, the pier and a refreshing dip in the water are just a few steps away.
A preheated sauna by the sea
The electrically heated sauna accommodates eight people and has a spacious changing and relaxation room. It's ready when you arrive, so there's no need to bring firewood or light the stove. A swimming ladder on the pier provides access to the sea, making it easy to alternate between the warmth of the sauna and a refreshing swim throughout the year.
Sauna rituals and shared experiences
KUR Sauna has previously offered aufguss sessions in Ula. During this guided sauna ritual, a sauna master uses heat, steam and aromatic scents to create a distinctive sauna experience. Programmes and availability may vary. Check the operator's calendar for upcoming aufguss sessions or other shared experiences.

You can also visit the memorial to Ulabrand, a well-known local maritime pilot. Discover more activities along the coast in Visit Vestfold's guide to activities in Larvik.
