If you like unusual, nature-oriented activities, then we recommend the Wild Atlantic Seaweed Baths. This activity consists of reserving a seaweed bath directly in the open air, facing the sea. The concept? You book a bath, and they bring you an old barrel once used to mature Irish whiskey. We make you comfortable, add sea water heated by a very efficient system, seaweed, and off you go for an hour of pure relaxation admiring the ocean!
A bath at the Wild Atlantic Seaweed Baths
Admittedly, it’s not the most common activity in Ireland, but this system of mobile baths is really catching on on the island! Locals and travelers alike are beginning to flock to this new kind of offer!
These baths are only available along the Wild Atlantic Way, a coastal road that runs for thousands of kilometers along the Irish coastline. To take advantage of it, you’ll need to visit the official website, check that a bath can be “delivered” to your geographical area (areas are fluid, and a bath is never held in the same place every day), pay, and turn up on the day.
Be sure to check out the “Wild Atlantic Seaweed Baths” social networks: that’s where you’ll find out every Wednesday evening where the week’s future baths will be held. Locations may vary according to weather conditions.
The experience is both sensational and unique: the warmth of the seawater provides total relaxation, while the beneficial effects of the seaweed are soothing and calming. All this in an enchanting, 100% natural setting, where you can enjoy the charm of the Atlantic Ocean, the sky and its changing colors.
A great way to recharge your batteries and become one with the Irish wilderness!
Note the possibility of sharing a bath alone or with others. The whiskey barrels have been designed to be comfortable and to offer you the best possible experience. The water is sufficiently heated to keep you warm.
The activity is open to adults and children. Allow an hour for the bath, for around €35 per person (€50 for 2 people in one bath).
Best done in spring and summer for even more fun!
