About
Aerth Saunas offers a distinctive sauna and cold plunge experience in downtown Victoria, featuring multiple, uniquely designed sauna pods. Guests can choose between different atmospheres, including a social sauna with upbeat music and blue lighting, a silent sauna for quiet contemplation, and a smaller pod available for private bookings. The saunas are noted for their perfect heat levels, clean facilities, and visually soothing, non-traditional curvilinear design that evokes a high-end Nordic aesthetic. The central cold plunge, equipped with a multi-colored sand timer for setting immersion goals, provides an invigorating contrast. Guests also utilize cold water buckets and cold showers for additional contrast therapy, creating a complete heat, cold, and stillness ritual. This venue is the only one in Victoria to offer the traditional Aufguss ceremony, complete with lively towel-waving rituals.
This outdoor sanctuary, nestled in the heart of James Bay, is crafted for connection to health and nature within an edible garden landscape. The welcoming atmosphere is enhanced by friendly, accommodating staff who foster a strong community feel. Guests relax in a cozy lounge area with a fireplace, enjoying complimentary herbal tea and electrolyte-infused water. The space is designed to feel larger than it is, with an accessible deck featuring non-slip surfaces, handrails, and accessibility buttons on sauna doors. With a variety of pricing options, Aerth Saunas caters to both regulars seeking a social, post-workout recovery spot and those desiring a more exclusive, private wellness experience.
