Watch “Why Iceland” – A short video showing the beauty of Iceland

9 Jun 2016

  • Nature & Wildlife

Tags: Red Paddle Co, Bncdrone

Our friends at bcnDrone released another fantastic video. This time they are in Island and they are making the most of it. In 2 minutes and 37 seconds they will convince you to pack your bags and head to Island without any second thoughts.

If there is a destination that should be in your bucket list, this is Iceland. It is not anymore just a landmass you flew over en route to Europe, blame those sneaky Vikings who, according to the legend named Iceland as such in order to keep everyone else away 😉 But the secret´s out! Here you have in less than 3 minutes some of the reasons why Iceland will surpass even your most grandiose expectations! It is definitely not the ultimate kite or wave spot, but if feels magic to be so close to the purest nature!

If you accept a personal tip, the best way to explore Iceland is on a road trip with a motorhome. Thanks McRent for having the best service in the island.
And if you wanna paddle in between icebergs and feel the experience of being surrounded by dozens of seals just bring your inflatable RedPaddle with you!

Music: Be The Bear – Erupt

Si hay un destino que debes poner en tu lista de deseos, ese es Islandia! Ya ha dejado de ser un simple trozo de tierra que te encuentras a tu paso cuando vuelas entre Europa a los EEUU. La culpa fue de esos vikingos pícaros que le pusieron el nombre de Iceland (Tierra de Hielo) para mantener a todo el mundo apartado. Pero el secreto ha dejado de serlo 😉 Aquí tenéis, en menos de 3 minutos, porque Islandia sobrepasará incluso vuestras mejores expectativas! Es evidente que no es el mejor lugar del mundo para la práctica de Kite o Surf, pero sientes la mágia de poder estar tan cerca de la naturaleza en su estado más puro!

Y si os puedo hacer una recomendación, sin duda alguna la mejor forma de conocer la isla es con una autocaravana. Gracias McRent por tener un servicio tan bueno.

Y si encima queréis hacer SUP con docenas de focas entre icebergs, siempre os podéis traer vuestro padel surf inflable de casa. Fácil!
