Vulcan Steam & Sauna (CLOSED) (Closed Permanently)

(113 Ratings)
A SD sauna institution
The Vulcan Sauna oozes with blue collar men, latinos (from nearby Tijuana), bears, daddies, their admirers, and a mix of Navy men from the nearby base. Operating for over 30 years in the same place, it still retains the ambience of the old bathhouses of the 1970s.

Vulcan closed but Club San Diego surprised me

Hi every one, well I also will miss the Vulcan, specially me liking chub, bears and older bears. but long story short, The Club San Diego they say has new owner has changed many things, they are getting rid of all the drug problems, repainting it and keeping it clean. I heard so many horrible things about this place but since its our last bath house I tried it and it was a nice surprise to see it all the opposite of what a lot of people said, but now so nice to see Chubs, Bears and Older bears there. They are still fixing some areas but it is worth it, call to make sure you ask about specials. the best is wed and thur is $13 without membership and $10 with membership for lockers

Vulcan San Diego RIP April 18, 2013

Just found out the Vulcan is closed for good. I drove down there this early a.m. and there was a close sign on the door. I had lots of fun and gave this place 5 stars. I had been going there for 13 yrs and always had a great time. I just hope they open it up again. It was in a great location and had a great patio to relax on a very Sunny San Diego day. Overall I like the place. Thanks for the fun times.
