I kicked off my Ice Row + Sauna + Dip combo with this group of bad ass women! Seasoned water women, all of them! Rowers, paddlers and divers!

And did we ever have an adventure! We rowed upriver and checked out the ice and then back out into the harbor, crushing it on some serious swells! A perfect surf landing like a cherry on top and then parted ways with these adventurous women so they could enjoy their post-row wood-fired sauna! They sure earned it! From what I understand some serious dipping and yelping were part of that experience!

I feel so grateful to have booked all three Ice Row combo experiences yesterday. Each one was special and beautiful and so I’ll be sharing a post for the other two, as well!

Ice Fest is still on in Belfast today! No Ice Rows because it’s too windy but I have two sauna sessions available at 12:30 and 2pm. If you’d like to book, contact me directly. DM or 207–323–3932.

though it’s quite windy today, I’m happy about that for our beautiful eye sculptures in town, which froze up again last night. Come to town and check ’em all out, including the ice seal at my sauna!

ICE SEAL IS IN THE HOUSE! I’m so delighted to have this sweet Harp Seal (aka Ice Seal) perched on the porch of my sauna! The seal is a homage to the Arctic seals that have visited Belfast harbor this winter.

You can also read my story in the about Arctic Seals in our harbor, which went live yesterday! Here’s the link: https://www.bangordailynews.com/2026/02/27/outdoors/outdoors-contributors/arctic-seals-belfast-harbor-joam40zk0w/

I’m proud to be sponsoring this ice sculpture with two other great Belfast businesses and Spring Street Eatery! SSE will be set up at the sauna offering hot beverages and sweet treats for sale today!

Come down and see the seal during today’s ICE FEST! My sauna is located in SoFro, south Front Street (I just invented that), right alongside the harborwalk!

Better yet, book a community sauna session! I’ve got seats open at 12:30, 2 and 3:30pm! Sessions are on the calendar for tomorrow, Sunday 3/1, as well! Pair it will a row—or not! I have two sessions of my Ice Row + Sauna + Dip sessions available tomorrow. Book your row/sauna via my DWR site!

Visit to see the whole lineup of ICE FEST activities! Its going to be a GREAT weekend!

This could be YOU!

Trying something new, getting outdoors and in your body. Having a winter experience like no other. Rowing in the ice, that snowy backdrop…feeling the breeze on your face, soaking up the sun.

And then, if THAT wasn’t amazing enough…
Heating up in my woodfired sauna right on the Belfast waterfront!

Belfast ICE FEST is next weekend Feb. 27-March 1 and I’m offering my Ice Row + Sauna + Dip combo all weekend! Adventure and wellness, that’s what this is all about!

Community sauna sessions will be running all weekend, too, starting Friday afternoon. You don’t have to row to sauna, but I hope you will! Book this experience with your pals! My dory seat seats up to three. Sauna seats up to six! Check it all out on my DWR website.

SO GREAT to row & sauna with Cricket, a bad ass Maine woman!

The weekend in review.

Dorywomen & a dorydog.

So much ice. To row in. To wade in.

So much warmth. The hearth & the heart.

Wind & waves. Connecting you to your strength.

Slow to play in. And then bring inside the sauna and watch it melt into steam.

This place, so elemental, that makes you feel so alive.

Happy Valentines beautiful people!♥️Your favorite salty witchy Dorywoman

Here’s what I offer at Salty Witch Sauna:

COMMUNITY sessions, Wed-Sunday, generally twice a day, afternoons and early evening. Wood-fired wellness while connecting with others. Part of wellness! Group size, 2-6 people. You can chat with others or choose not to. $35 per seat for 1.25 hrs.

PRIVATE sessions are available Wed-Sunday, between 1-7pm. A community session can be converted to private, if availability allows. $150 for 1.25 hrs/$175 for 1.5 hrs. All the great benefits of sauna, all to yourself! A wonderful birthday, anniversary, valentine or other special occasion. Or just for you!

BOTH types of sessions offer ALL the health benefits of sauna. Deep relaxation…cardiovascular, metabolic and immune system benefits. The science is there. Cold dipping and playing in the snow…PURE JOY! I believe fun is an important ingredient to good health.

Plus, Vitamin Sea, with our beautiful waterfront location. It’s a 5-minute walk from downtown to Salty Witch. Join a community session or book your private sauna in February!

➡️ Do you have an idea for a regular/semi-regular private group? Please be in touch! I’d love to work with you.
