Endless dunes, endless fun. The ultimate cruising spot by the sea. Don't forget sunscreen! #Maspalomas #Cruising
History & Background
Opened in the heart of Kreuzberg, Der Boiler quickly established itself as a modern institution. Unlike older, labyrinthine saunas, it was designed with open sightlines and industrial aesthetics in mind, reflecting the gritty yet polished evolution of Berlin's gay scene.
Atmosphere & Vibe
The atmosphere is a striking balance of relaxation and high-energy cruising. Sundays are legendary, drawing a diverse crowd from muscle gays to bears and admirers. The lighting is low, moody, and perfectly calibrated for anonymity and allure.
Facilities
Features a massive Finnish sauna (host to hourly Aufguss rituals), a steam labyrinth that encourages exploration, a whirlpool, and a dedicated bar area serving fresh drinks and snacks. The cruising area is vast, ensuring you never run out of corners to explore.
Etiquette & Tips
Towels are mandatory in the bar area. 'No means no' is strictly enforced. Flip-flops are recommended. The Aufguss sessions are silent—respect the ritual.
Access
Mehringdamm 34. Approx. 2 min walk from U-Bahn Mehringdamm (U6/U7). The entrance is in the backyard—look for the industrial chimney.
