Skye's the limit - The Film, Xterra Adventures Taiwan, wreck dive in France on the Rubis and Kite Masters in Pingtan China on HorizonSports this week.
Skye’s The Limit
The Isle of Skye sits off the West coast of Scotland and is renowned for its beauty and wildlife. Skye’s The Limit’ documents one woman’s solo circumnavigation of the Isle of Skye on stand up paddle board. In a bid to highlight that even these wild, remote and beautiful places are vulnerable to plastic pollution, Cal Major braves 200 miles of ripping tidal races, storms and waves to journey around the island, alone, to access even the most remote beaches. With over 100,000 sea mammals and over a million sea birds killed every year as a result of plastic pollution, ‘Skye’s The Limit’ demonstrates that even wild and seemingly untouched places like this aren’t safe against this threat, but how with simple changes we can all be a part of the solution.
