Soak Seaweed Baths
Review
Soak Seaweed Baths in Newcastle remains a true standout experience and still proudly holds its place in my Top 100 Attractions on the Island of Ireland book. After all these years, it remains the only Seaweed Bathhouse in the UK, a testament to its uniqueness and quality. Before indulging in a fresh, mineral-rich seaweed bath, you begin your journey in a personal steam cabinet, allowing your body to relax and prepare for the therapeutic soak ahead. What sets Soak apart is its dedication to freshness, owner Dermot still personally harvests seaweed from the Co. Down shorelines, ensuring an authentic and natural experience. Beyond the baths, a range of Irish only seaweed-based treatments enhances the visit, making it an ideal wellness retreat. Whether you're a first-timer or a returning guest, Soak is an experience you'll want to revisit time and time again, offering a perfect escape for both relaxation and rejuvenation.
