Icebergs are an interesting novelty; just make certain you are awake when you are cruising in those Arctic regions.

My first iceberg I never saw. One morning I awoke to find my monitor reporting my career ended due to collision. The area was adjacent to Iceland (ironic), one hundred kilometers from anywhere.

My second iceberg I nearly missed. A month of real time later, heading for the same area, I turned in and, as is not unusual, let the boat run through my sleep. I awoke to the hoopla of massive damage and slow sinking, half of my crew wounded or dead. We managed to save the boat, and with if I remember 12% hull integrity I was ready to acquiesce to my attacker. We had no choice but to pop to the surface, and scanning the horizon...I see my first iceberg. My only regret is giving up the career, rather than trying my luck getting back to port.

If you really want to see one you should be be running with GWX. You should be in the Arctic region; I experienced mine in Spring, think it was 1940.
If you Time-Compress for travel you may be speeding by them without knowing it.
I would prefer you discover them spontaneously, like Easter Eggs in Flight Simulator. But if you can't wait, run with SH3Commander, and after you're some distance from Port, Stop, Save, Exit, Rollback SH3C's Mod files, and set your Time Compression Near Land to "One". Then ReStart, and Time-Compress your way all you want through the Arctic. Given that you have enough fuel, and you stay away from the Mainlands, any proximity to a land mass will slow the sim to Real-Time One. Scanning the area around your boat in relatively clear weather should produce a lumbering iceberg "just passing through".
