"If you fantasise about turning a few laps in the sightline of a presidential palace or in the shadow of a cruise ship, then head to Allas Sea Pool. This contemporary outdoor construction floats in the harbour directly in front of Kauppatori. Visitors can choose between three pools: sea water (using filtered water pumped in from beyond the harbour); children’s; and a main lap pool, which is heated year-round. Even when air temperatures plunge below zero and the sea is caked in ice you’ll find Helsinkians plying up and down in the steam. The daily entrance fee includes access to the sauna and other facilities."

Enjoyed our 1st Finnish sauna here & loved the experience. We weren’t sure how we would cope jumping into the freezing water, but so glad we did it. 2 hours was enough & finished with a swim in the warm pool.

Great place, especially to finish a trip and relax for a few hours before the ferry. There are three saunas: one small sauna for men and women separately (about 6–7 persons each), one large mixed sauna (around 20 people) with an amazing panoramic window and a spectacular view of the bay and the coast of Helsinki. This one is medium hot, around 80 °C, and with the push of a button, water is poured onto the sauna stove rocks. There is also another mixed sauna, quite hot at about 90 °C, that seats around 15 people. In addition, there is a very nice heated swimming pool—slightly more chlorinated than a typical pool, but the highlight is a small outdoor seawater pool next to the saunas. Its temperature is the same as the sea (around 15–16 °C during the summer), making it wonderfully refreshing and pleasant after a hot sauna.

This is the ultimate Finnish sauna in Helsinki. Two mixed saunas, one all male sauna. one female sauna offer varying levels of heat. The one behind the cafe offers no view and is the hottest. My fav is the mixed sauna with port view. The cold pools are two pools about 27degrees celcius today, one for lap swim. The sea pool is about 15degrees Celsius and is pure sea water. I preferred the temperature if the pool and dipped my feet and hands in the cold sea pool They offer shower before and after sauna. Towels and swimsuits are available for rent. Our three hour senior pass cost about 18 Euros The cafe offers accessible open first level overlook to the port area. The restaurant on second level offers a more expansive view. This is the place to experience the true Finnish sauna, the health concept developed and perfected in Finland.

A "stylish", "modern" marine spa in a prime location, great for photos, but the comfort level falls short. Only three outdoor saunas, small and packed in the late afternoon. The outdoor areas lack any shelter or storage for towels and belongings in rain. The changing rooms are tiny, poorly cleaned, and get slippery – honestly, I found them quite unsafe. Staff are polite and professional, but completely passive: you have to ask, because no info is offered of their own accord. Overall, a slick concept, but maintenance and service feel underwhelming.

Dared Myself To Visit. Glad I Did. Bring a Proper Attitude, it Gets A Bit Nippy Outdoors. Place is Spacious, Came on a Weekday and It Was Just Enough Busy to Feel Comfortable. Outdoor Pool is Great For Laps. Cold Plunge is Exhilarating. Saunas Provide Just Enough Release and Random Nooks and Spots to Relaxe Offer A Relaxing Environment. Would Gladly Come Back Again. Group Friendly. Would Visit Again. There is some construction outdoors but it didn't lessen the experience. 💯 This is a locals favorite.

Expensive but beaut spot. Changing rooms are too small and I couldn’t imagine doing it in the winter time as there’s very little shelter. But the concept is v cool. And the sauna with the view of the harbour is awesome.

We had high hopes for the Finish sauna experience, but we came a little disappointed after spending a couple of hours in the Allas Pool center. The saunas were VERY busy, so much that we had to wait for people to get out before we could get in. Keep in mind they only have 3 coed saunas, so that limited our options. Perhaps it was so busy because it was a Saturday at the beginning of summer. Maybe it would be less crowded during the working week.

This place is amazing!!! I had a long layover in Helsinki and visited Allas Pool for the first time. Was great to experience the sauna culture and jump in their ocean water. But the reason for the 5 star review really is that I forgot my daypack at Allas when I returned to the airport… after emailing their friendly staff they agreed to hold my bag for a month before I could come back on my return flight (which also had a long layover in Helsinki!). I was shocked that they would do this for me. Fantastic service, great way to experience Finland. Would 100% recommend this place to anyone, even if you’re just on a long layover!!

Beautiful popular spot in Helsinki. There is a great patio, rooftop terrace, and sauna and pool area. The drinks are also good here and it's a fun area to hang out. We moved inside because all the smoking was bothering me but besides that it was a great experience.

I visited Allas Sea Pool while on vacation in Finland, and it was fantastic! I would definitely recommend the experience. Entry to the pool is €12, which I found to be very reasonable. The price gets you an electronic wristband, allowing you entry into all areas (pools and saunas) as well as locker access for a 10 hour period. Re-entry is also allowed, which was extremely useful for me - I was staying a little bit outside of the city, and so I brought a day pack, stashed it in a locker and went to explore the city before returning later in the afternoon to swim. There are three pools which overlook the marina area, so it feels like you're swimming right by the ocean. They are different temperatures, and I believe one is a seawater pool. The pool deck is large and there are a number of deck chairs available for use, however it's also possible to just relax on a towel. Allas additionally has three saunas - male, female and mixed. They are not huge and can fit maybe 15-20 people each, so bear in mind at busy times it could get crowded. A swimming costume is required for the mixed sauna, however in the single sex saunas it is traditional to go in the nude. I believe all saunas are set at the same temperature, therefore there isn't much difference between any of them besides the people. There is also a restaurant and bar onsite, and on the day that I was there, a music festival was running as well, however this was an additional cost not previously included in the entry price. Overall, I'd say Allas is a great place to visit, whether or not you want to swim. Entry is cheap enough that you could go over for a quick dip and also experience Finland's sauna culture, and still get your money's worth. The staff that I encountered were very friendly, and I would definitely return if I ever find myself in Helsinki again!

Pros The breathtaking sauna consept in the heart of Helsinki! Cons: Dressing room is tight; cleaness is bellow average. Huipusti sijaitseva sauna konseptti kaipaa meikki remonttista sekä perus siivousta. Pyyhevuokra 8.5e

Forget Taylor Swift's "Shake it off": here, we (same tune) "Sweat it out"! Allas Sea Pool is right in the Helsinki Harbour, which is amazing if you're visiting the city for just a brief time and want to get in some of the well-known local "sauna culture". Allas Sea Pool is quite a complex: restaurant, upper deck, three pools, saunas, change rooms. Although some regulars seemed to be swimming laps, it's also possible to have a day-only pass (12 Euro) which entitles you to 10 hours of access to all the amenities. There seem to be special events held here, too, such as surf courses and kids' birthdays (I witnessed a clown or three being thrown into the pool). Yelp note: the venue also hosts musical acts - Franz Ferdinand to play soon! - so add some rock 'n roll to your relaxation (R and R and R)!

Great place to hang out in the summer. We visited only for drinks, so this review is not based on the food. Comfy relaxing chairs and good music. There are both seapools and normal swimming pools. Lots of seating options on the roof, by the pools, in the bar area and even in the steps.

This is the only swimming pool that is still open during Covid times in Helsinki. It has a splendid location, facing the Baltic Sea and also near the center. The scenery is quite marvelous no matter it's winter or summer, sunny or moonlight-bathing. The changing room is just a bit crowded and ladies usually have to wait for quite some time to use the hairdryers. But other than that, nothing to complain about at all. Remember to bring your own towers and flip-flops. The price is €15 single ticket and €120 for 10 times.

We didn't actually go in but it looks to be a great place to enjoy sauna and pool. They have also built a really outdoor cool bar/cafe that you can check out a great view without paying for a drink.

Coming to Helsinki, I had to go to a sauna and the Allas Sea Pool has it all at an affordable price. The 12 euros price includes all day entrance to the pools and sauna but be sure to bring your own towel, shampoo and conditioner. There are 3 locker rooms, a mens, women, and coed. You get a wristband that you can use to lock a locker where you store your stuff. Inside the locker room are the showers and a huge sauna. The sauna can definitely fit a good 20 or so people. Once you step outside, there are 3 pools, the freshwater pool, kids pool (closed in the winter), and Baltic sea pool. The pools had a great view of the harbor and you can watch boats come in and out of the harbor. We came during the winter so the freshwater pool was nice and heated while the Baltic sea pool was freezing below 40 degree F. It was a once in a lifetime thing, so we had to jump into the Baltic Sea Pool which we only stayed in for seconds before jumping out. I can see why this is such a popular thing in Finland and I wish this was something we did in the US.

This was a highlight of my stay in Helsinki. The pools was a perfect temperature. The sauna was clean. The cafe was yummy. And the decks and sandy workout area had a perfect view of the harbor. I want to go back to Helsinki just so I can visit Allas Sea Pool again.

Wow. I was in Helsinki for one day and wanted to eat, drink and check out the Sauna lifestyle. After doing a day trip food tour with Heather's Fork in Hand walking tour, she recommended the Allas Sea Pool for the sauna and maybe a swim in the heated pool or sea pool that was currently 0 degrees C or 32 degrees F. It was close to the train station so I was game. I paid a few euro for my ticket and an extra 10E total for the suit and towel rental and went to sauna town. Sauna was fun - did that for 15 min then dipped in the icy cold sea pool...it was amazing.
