Why Iceland?
HX Expeditions is known for its immersive, sustainable journeys to some of the most remote and pristine places on Earth. Their itineraries aren’t your typical beach-hopping holidays—they’re raw, remote, and deeply connected to the natural world.
That’s why Iceland is the perfect prize: a jaw-dropping landscape of geothermal springs, towering fjords, thundering waterfalls and unforgettable wildlife encounters. For HX, Iceland isn’t just a destination—it’s a living classroom, offering insight into our climate, oceans, and conservation.
Why HX Expeditions?
With a legacy of responsible travel, HX operates one of the world’s first hybrid-powered expedition ships and is a passionate advocate for ocean preservation.
This competition forms part of HX’s World Ocean Day initiative—an invitation for the travel industry to unite in support of ocean conservation and climate awareness. As a recognised leader in sustainable expedition travel, HX demonstrates a deep commitment to preserving fragile marine ecosystems through actions such as operating hybrid-powered ships and supporting scientific research at sea.
