🧠Activities at Havsvidden
At Havsvidden, there’s something for everyone – whether you're here to relax or stay active. Enjoy a sauna with the sea as your closest neighbor, take a walk along the cliffs, go for a jog through the forest, or hop on a bike to explore the surrounding nature. You can unwind or get inspired – or both – right outside your door.
♨️ Pool House and Saunas
The pool house at Havsvidden is located by the guest harbor and offers a beautiful sea view. Inside you'll find several saunas, an indoor pool, and a scenic terrace. We recommend changing into your swimsuit in your room and walking down in your bathrobe. During high season, the Pool Bar is open and serves drinks and light bites.
Access to the pool house is included for all hotel guests and overnight guests in the guest harbor.
🌊 Sea swimming year-round – a refresh for body and mind
Swimming in the sea at Havsvidden is special – all year round. In summer, it offers a refreshing break from the sun, and during the rest of the year, a cold dip awakens your entire body. Cold water swimming is said to improve circulation, boost the immune system and enhance overall wellbeing. Combine your swim with a visit to our shoreline sauna, located right by the pier – the perfect way to warm up after a revitalising dip.
🔥 Smoke Sauna and Hot Tub – for private relaxation
Booking our traditional smoke sauna and wood-fired hot tub is a one-of-a-kind experience. Surrounded by cliffs and fresh sea air, smaller groups can enjoy warmth, privacy, and tranquility in a unique natural setting. Pre-booking is required, as the smoke sauna is carefully heated for six hours before use – part of the charm of this traditional sauna ritual.
