Jacca Deeble, Wildland

This short documentary was part of an initiative to record and demonstrate the unique, biodiverse marine habitats of the Scottish north coast in the hope of creating a case for local marine protection.

The focus of the film, and the accompanying marine survey for Wildland Ltd, is the most remote stretch of coast on the UK mainland - 40 miles of towering limestone cliffs, sandy bays, estuaries, islands and a deep-water sea loch. The varied geology has created a wide range of marine habitats which support biodiverse marine communities but while largely unspoilt, they have suffered from industrial aquaculture.
