About
Aquarina is a small cooperative pool and wellness centre in Rheinau on the Rhine, south of Schaffhausen. It has an indoor 25 m swimming pool (29 °C), a children's pool and a whirlpool (33 °C), and in summer an outdoor area with a 50 m pool and a 65 m water slide.
According to the operator the wellness is a "small oasis" in a separate part of the indoor pool: a Finnish sauna (85–90 °C), a bio sauna (60 °C), a steam bath (45 °C) and a relaxation room. The house rules state that the wellness area is swimwear-free. Some days are reserved for women or men, and it is closed on Thursdays.
