Float into Serenity
Our remote floating sauna merges wellness and wilderness in Tofino’s backyard. The sauna is located deep within a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, home of Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation. Among the vast solitude and stillness of Clayoquot Sound, you’ll find it easy to tap into quiet here.


A Magical Wellness Escape
There is no wifi or cell service—just you and the ones you love in a protected corner of one of the most awe-inspiring landscapes on earth. Only a 30 minute boat ride away, you’ll feel like you’ve entered another world. Relax in the wood-fired cedar sauna, immerse yourself in the salty healing waters of the Pacific Ocean, and warm up by the fire.
