Gym saunas in Melbourne, Australia
Brighton Baths Health Club
One of just two remaining sea baths in Victoria, Brighton Baths has stood on the bayside foreshore for more than 138 years. The waterfront health club wraps a steam room and ice bath around open-water swimming with the Icebergers, group classes, personal training and indoor and outdoor training areas. Entry is by membership, and the site also runs events and venue hire on the pier.
St Kilda Sea Baths
The historic bathing pavilion on St Kilda beach houses South Pacific Health Club, whose centrepiece is a 25 metre heated indoor seawater pool drawn straight from Port Phillip Bay, with a hydrotherapy spa, a unisex aromatherapy steam room and a full gym around it. It opens at 5am on weekdays and 7am at weekends, and sits directly on the Jacka Boulevard foreshore beside the pavilion's restaurants and watersports schools.

It also runs signature group sauna and ice bath classes, a 20-minute sauna followed by a three to five minute group plunge. Access is by membership, from $129 a week with the bathhouse included.
