Mull is the best island and the friendliest, is also the safest, very good people and communities on the island, I’ve been on holiday to Mull and loved every second of it. I recommend Mull to anyone and everyone.

3000 people can turn into 8000 people over the summer so it certainly can get very busy, it is a beautiful Island you should definitely go back and explore more. Great video and congratulations on getting the drone back !

Calgary, Loch Buie and Loch Na Keal all have donation based camping spots open year round so they are spread out everywhere. Lived there for a year and honestly it was tough at times with constant ferry issues and lack of supplies but it's one of the most beautiful places in the UK for sure.

Never taken my van to Mull but been loads of times sailing. I love Tobermory and you regularly see vans parked overnight at the carpark next to the marina. If you do venture back the public have access to the same shower and toilet facilities used by the marina during the day. You pay a couple of pounds for a shower regardless of whether you are booked in at the marina or the general public. Happy travels

New sub. Great video you guys. You can wild camp at Calgary Bay, there are 24 hour public toilets, and picnic benches, and BBQ’s there maintained by the local community. There’s a wee honesty box to let you leave them a few quid. It’s funny, I made a wee video on Mull for the motorcycling community, and my thumbnail said “Will it ever stop raining” 😂 If you are on Mull during the holiday season, Fidden Farm campsite down at Fionport is a great site. Good facilities but very low impact on the land. You wouldn’t know you were on a campsite at times.

Hi Chris, after spending 5 weeks in Scothland this year, I have been enjoying your videos as a reminder of the great time I had. I spent a good day on Mull and was also of the opinion that it is a „hidden gem“ and I would have loved to have stayed a day or two longer. Near the standing stones you visited was also a „castle“. I looked for it for a while before finding out that the pile of stones on a hill was the castle in question. The term „castle“ in Scotland is very flexible.

I got some beautiful pictures of Calgary Bay from that big hill behind you (a steep climb) there's remains of an old village hidden up there too. We camped for 2 days and had fun swimming but it was a bit overcrowded. Easiest Munro (Ben More) I've ever climbed on Mull provdides a wonderful view in all directions.

As usual loving the crack / humour 🤣 I went to Mull many years ago now in September and was very lucky with the weather (roasting), nipped over to Iona on the ferry but didn’t go to Staffa as I had my dog with me…. Catch 22 really, go out of season and the weather’s not good, go in season and I bet it’s like one large traffic jam these days - same as here in the Lakes🙄

Great video Chris. Next time I head to Mull I'll probably not go to Iona as due to the roads it took an hour from the ferry at Craignure to get there. At least Craignure to Tobermory is quicker mainly because that way is mostly single carriageway!

Really enjoyed the video. You need to go back as there is so much more to see. A trip down the side of loch Scridain to see the sea eagles or some seal spotting. Or maybe come back in October for the Tour of Mull Rally. Imagine watching cars go down that road you lost the drone on at 140mph! an awesome spectacle and the whole island is buzzing.

Hi dude you can park up in a hell of a lot more then 4 off road. Places on mull especially on the west side of loch na Keal I do use sites as well but not every night and never had a problem no. Mull is far by the best island to visit . Skye is too commercialised these days and far too busy .
