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.

I frequent the Vulcan every other month and enjoy it. Friendly staff, clean, and reasonably priced. By far more superior to Club SD.

Questions, questions, questions

Hey guys - so, I'm curious to know, what is this area like, what is parking like, do they have a lot or is it street parking? What happens when you walk in, how big is the place? Can I rent a pvt room to accommodate someone I find in the main space? I've visited Steamworks in Berkley but that was a visitor and drunk. Now I live in SD, I like to be a little discreet. Would like to know what days/times are best to avoid! I'm looking to just go and have fun but wish they had a website to view some images online!!
