History of the IceBar
Founded in 2007, the ice bar has solidified its place as a must-visit attraction for those seeking a truly unique, frozen experience. With over 40 tonnes of ice used in IceBar Surfers creates an unforgettable atmosphere where everything from the walls to the furniture is sculpted from ice.
