Iceland is so wild and beautiful. They say that if you accidentally drop your camera and it takes a photo, you might get on the front cover of National Geographic! The dream was to ice climb, free dive and surf, all on the same trip. There are few places in the world where that is possible, but Iceland is one of the best. We wanted to experience Iceland in a way that had never been done before. Ice climbing on immense icebergs and in the depths of the biggest glaciers, free diving in some of the clearest waters in the world and surfing in the freezing ocean, while surrounded by snow covered mountains.
