Ambitious journey, much like her film “Scotland Ocean Nation” paddling the entire length of the coast of Scotland. Her choice of a SUP for these adventures does seem a bit gimmicky though - a kayak would have been just as adventurous, more efficient, safer, and far more survivable in case of unexpected rough sea conditions. The only reasoning I can fathom is that it’s a “well no one else has done that before” mindset. It makes for unnecessary risk and greater reliance on outside help if you need rescue, although it is evident that chase craft to film the journey were close at hand.

Animals losing their lives to pollution... human pollution, is heartbreaking. Beutifully made video and extremely important message(s). I cry with you.

This is fascinating, what a woman and incredible beautiful journey. Just seeing Cal speaking on those alone times, I know we'd hit it off :D. I am doing bit by bit more to help however I can. Fighting for nature, for animals and to protect this unique planet and its unlikely conditions for life and lie itself.. damn, I can't see a more valuable way to spend one's life. Didn't think of SUP as a means to fight for causes, but now I have a new source of inspiration. And just as a side note, as someone who struggles with depression (in my case as a vegan aware of the state of the world), I...I do understand.

great film. you guys make a cracking film.

Another stunning video. Sometimes the animals just need a helping hand.

So beautiful

I do some lake touring alone, and after watching this video I have to get kidded with some stuff. A phone, car keys and bottle of water isn’t the right set for survival 😅

You're such an inspiration. Amazing achievement in the name of two extremely important causes. 👏👏

You are a passionate and very gutsy lady 🙏 what an inspirational journey, Mother Nature is struggling and we all have a responsibility to clean up our act and everyone has a small part to play so the oceans continue to heal and rejuvenate. Your best friend would of been so proud of you 🙌

Utterly beautiful video and music Cal. You are an inspiration to us all.

Wow. Inspirational. One of those great examples where the journey is more important than the destination. The scenery is so contrasting and Beautiful in different ways. Doing things that are big and difficult with potential failure shape you. Really enjoyed this content. Thank you

What equipment were you guys filming on? I’m always been over cautious taking my filming gear on my SUP and ended up using action cams because they are waterproof. P.s love your editing style and grading 👏

I’m from Atlantic Canada and our beaches have little to no plastics. A lot of places have banned plastic bags. Hopefully it stays that way.

Most cinematic sup board adventure I’ve ever seen. Coming from a film student. Might be one of my goals to make one of these some day. Props to all!

This is such a touching story. I'm impressed by your passion and strength. It is encouraging to see the people in the video who are concerned about our environment and our planet. Thank you!👍

wow wow wow, amazing. So inspirational. I hope you've submitted to Banff ocean film festival (at least a shorter version!).

Wow. Incredible BEAUTIFUL cinematography and story. I wish you much success in pursuing your passion and love for our planet 💚

Brilliant! Thank you. I’m so inspired.

Amazing achievement, what a privilege to enjoy the film of your journey. I am appalled at the amount of rubbish you found, we really don't deserve this place.

what an achievement, I'm totally blown away by that. beautiful film too.

The problem is that very little amount of plastic are recycled, even if you do throw your plastic in the right place, its not recycled, they put them on the ships to poor countries, and it ands in the ocean. All those companies are doing nothing to stop plastic, but we see them bla, bla on the climate summits, stop plastic is more important than a stop oil.

Speechless, utterly speechless. What an achievement and such bravery..

scotland is such a beautiful country :0

What an amazing adventure and stunning film! It saddens me though to see so much plastic even in these desolate areas. I am quite new to paddling, but already collect what i can when out on the water. I hope that by the time my daughter grows up, plastic in our oceans will be a thing of the past. Keep up your brilliant work Cal!

what kind of fish inhibit the kelp?

🥰

Whats the VHF radio for? contact who? I always gone alone and never have any thing other than phone, I really need to get sorted with stuff.

Saw you at the Camp House all those years ago and just watched your video and saw myself in the beer garden! Well done on your expedition, that takes some real grit...

Lovely video 😊

Really amazing trip, unfortunately the pollution is increasing time by time 🥲

I love what you doing . It’s absolutely amazing

You are amazing human, I've got tears in my eyes. I'm struggling with depression my whole life and from time to time got very difficult period ; You did amazing job and thank you for that. Grat movie as well ❤❤❤

Ok. I'm won over and subbed. Beautiful filming and story telling and I can't tell you much I appreciate you picking up the rubbish. Check out "The Scottish Coastal Clean Up". 👍 Mark, East Lothian

Lovely wee film. 👍

What an amazing film. You are a very inspirational young woman. brilliant.

Super inspiring! Makes me want to go out and have a big adventure. Curious how the starboard touring sup holds up in windy and choppy condition. Would you recommend it for long distance open sea expedition?

Excellent production, seagulls crossing the shot? Wow, beautiful cinematography!

What an amazing adventure. You should be immensely proud of yourself

Amazing expedition. Im fairly new to SUP, have isups and awaiting for a rigid board. I have always dreamt of doing SUP around the island i am from. Watching this video made me feel more inspired. Thank you so much for sharing your journey, your cause and your love for the Ocean, Animals, SUP and your Friends.

Just found your channel Cal and want to thank you so much for sharing and caring. Great achievement. We all need to have a rethink about how we live our lives. We really are making such a mess of things. All the best in the future.

Another beautiful and thought provoking film. Thank you Cal :)

Fantastic filming and editing, very professional. Well done.

I was so moved y your journey. I made a journey around the coast of the UK on my bike in 2011 at a time when I was struggling with my own mental health. I wanted to speak out at a time when it wasn't done. People were amazingly supportive and generous to me also. This brought back so many memories and similar feelings. Your friend would be so proud of you. Thank you for sharing this wonderful story Cal. :)

Such an inspiration, what an amazing achievement, a journey which acknowledges important issues. I love to go on sup adventures but this has just made me want to do more, well done to you Cal. ❤

Great video that captures a very impressive feat while also highlighting the massive problem there is with plastic pollution

Unbelievable xx

Great video. Thanks for sharing!

Rather excellent film - thank u

Amazing experience! Thanks for making and bring all of the info into it too! ❤

It’s a myth that most plastic is recyclable.
