"I spent my adolescence dreaming of escaping a land-locked country town in western Victoria... of sheep and wheat and dirt."
From the land-locked boondocks of rural Australia to the wild coast of West Papua, Deep Water follows Brendan McAloon's remarkable journey to the most remote corners of the globe in search of the perfect wave.
