We travel along the coastline for several days. All we need fits in our waterproof and floatable Big Pack. Reduced to the minimum we set out to explore nature. We dive down into the deep blue ocean and swim along wild cliffs, reaching out for untouched beaches where we spend our nights under the clear sky.- Bernhard Wache, Founder of Seatrekking.

It has been almost twelve years since Bernhard and a group of friends started developing a new sport they ended up naming SEATREKKING. It began with the simple idea of spending as much time as possible near and in the ocean, swimming from one shore to another and sleeping on remote beaches that are hard to reach by land or boat. Everything they needed was stored in waterproof backpacks with the load being reduced to a bare minimum.
In 2015 Bernhard, the founder of Seatrekking, contacted me if I would like to become part of the film that he were planning to produce. I trained my free-diving skills (almost 5 minutes on a single breath) and we started shooting in Italy, travelled on towards Croatia, Tenerife, South Africa, Brazil and Egypt.
We felt like pioneers, exploring the possibilities of Seatrekking all around the globe. Making new friends and sharing experiences of all kinds. For almost a week, we even shared the cold concrete floor in one of Egypts prisons. After intense investigations, the secret service of Egypt understood that we weren’t Israeli spies, just harmless filmmakers with a bad sun burn. To me Seatrekking is no longer just a sport. I understood its philosophy and I am more than excited to share it with you.
