Aurora Nest - The pioneer of nature tourism
Aurora Nest opens up billions of square meters of gorgeous water areas for entrepreneurs’ benefit and tourists’ pleasure. Aurora Nest floats at its destination independently without affecting the environment. The ability to freely navigate and stay overnight in a boat on the water is a little-used, legally authorized “everyman’s right” in the Nordic countries. Aurora Nest makes this possible without harming nature.
In the summer, the Aurora Nest glass Igloo boat is a cool, comfortable accommodation on the water, where you are protected from mosquitos. In winter it can be placed on ice. The temporary placement of an Aurora Nest on land usually requires only the permission of the landowner. Eco-friendly accommodation near natural attractions – destination accommodation
