- Опубліковано 27 бер 2021
- Cape Breton is like one big family and the tourism industry is no exception to that. Every year Cape Breton Island welcomes nearly half a million visitors and at the top of most people’s list is the iconic Cabot Trail. A 298km scenic highway that follows the rocky northern shores of the island and loops around the Cape Breton Highlands National Park. The tourism operators who live there are passionate people with big personalities from all over the world and this is a story about how some of those operators are changing the narrative on what it's like to live and run a business in rural Cape Breton.

My mom is from SW Margaree and I spent every summer there as a kid. I live in Ontario now with my wife and kids and make the trip back every couple of years. Planning to head that way again this summer. Can't wait. Loved the documentary. Really made me miss the area. Good job!
Being here at this moment in South West Margaree a few houses up from the grave yard and about to drive around the Cabot Trail today and listening to this documentary makes me feel like I’m in heaven. ❤❤❤ There’s no place like Cape Breton.
I live in Vermont and at the end of a 2-week visit to N.S. I bought a house in 2005. The Maritimes are incredible and Cape Breton is definitely the icing on the cake. However, it is the people that really make it what it is. Amazing!
They sure do Kevin! Maybe we'll see you into the campground sometime when you hit the island!
One of the most beautiful places on earth is Cape Breton Nova Scotia Canada. I miss it too much. It was my home in the summer. At my grandma's house 🏠.
J ai visité Cape Breton Island en 2000 ,Ce fut un très beau voyage avec ma conjointe. Cabot trail merveilleux.What the very best souvenirs we had.I should go back soon.
Loved every min of it Heading to the trail in a couple weeks for the first time. Looking forward to it even more.
I'm a Chiasson - my grandfather was born on Cheticamp Island, and my great x4 uncle, Father Fiset, built the church there. I live in Ontario...went back 'home' for the first time in 38 years in 2019. My heart is in CB. My dream and goal is to get back there for good! Thank you for doing this film. It made me cry. I wish all of those in business along the trail the very, very best!
Loved this ♡
OMG, this is SO GOOD. 👏👏👏
I have lived here in cape Breton all my life, and travelled across canada, but when I come home, that's when I can relax. There is so much more to this island than tourist spots. People when they visit, should just look on the map and search the island, you will be amazed! Looking for something? Ask any caper, we will be glad to show you what,when,where and how.
Well done🎉
Cape Breton ; a special island with special people ! Very unique !
I hope all of you made it thru the pandemic. We live in Florida and plan to come to Nova Scotia in August and spend a month traveling in our van.Cape Brenton is beautiful and hope to meet you. Ty for this great intro!!
A extremely well presented, classic and underrated doc. Many thanks for making this and wish all of the adventure biz owners from CPI the best!
This was absolutely amazing.
His analogy on fishing damn near had me in tears.. Its so true
Really Great Job!!! It is in my bucket list. We Appreciated. Hopefully, we can travel & explore this year of 2022.
Great video. I wish all those businesses the best of luck.
wonderful! thanks for sharing this video..
Awesome job so far guys!! Getting lots of ideas for my 2nd trip around the trail this summer 🙂
Amazing thanks! I would suggest planning ahead as much as you can - things are already getting booked up!
WOW , thanks for the fantastic video. Been there alone, once in AUG 2018, waiting for boarders to reopen and will ride back with my wife this time.
Great promo for a fantastic place to visit and or stay
This is awesome!
This is amazing! My friends and I are travelling to Cape Breton in May and this video makes me 100000X more excited!! Very well done!
Make sure to stop in and see Bricin on your way around!
Very well done 👏👏👏👏
Excellent doc! We’ll be out there, from Vancouver Island BC, for the FIRST time this May and I came across your doc while searching Cabot Trail. I’ve just found most of the operators you feature via their Facebooks and messaged them all - can’t wait to experience your neck of the woods!!
That's awesome! Give us a holler if you have any questions!
Cape Breton has given me some the best experiences of my life. Last summer was my first time staying at Live Life in Tents which offered an incredible laid back at home feeling Looking forward to more adventuring this beautiful area next fall.
Thanks, Michele! Really appreciate it and we plan to expand on that experience in the coming years! Hopefully see you again sometime soon.
We will see you all very soon. Best of luck guys and here’s to a great summer. ❤️🇨🇦❤️ Cheers!!!
Holy shit your production value is amazing video edit is sick
Only 123 subs crazy only 25 comments jeez
great video. very inspiring. wow. much amaze. will recommend. XD
Hopefully they’ll develop some awesome mountain bike trail systems. This will only draw more people and further help these businesses. Trail systems built here in BC have changed whole communities with this type of tourism. Cape Breton has endless opportunity with Mountains for this
Agree with you there! Lots in the works for that here on the island.
Have you heard any details ? What areas they plan to build in?
thank you, amazing vlog this was very helpful, i was worried that i won’t be able to park on the road, but i see there were parking lots at intervals
Well done guys. I can relate to your story as us Door County locals often refer to our dead-end road peninsula as an island too. It attracts real characters too - we're always saying that if you live here then you really want to be here because its not an easy life. It's heart warming (is that the right term?) to know that others who live on an island and make their living from the tourism trade face some of the same issues and concerns that we do here.
Thanks for the comment Brett! Your place look a great spot and I'd love to come to visit someday.- maybe a road trip sometime!
@@livelifeintents I'm thinking the same. Meeting of the minds might be a great opportunity to exchange ideas and see first hand what we're all dealing with.
Live.
Great video...
Love the music @17:00.
Please, who's the artist?
Beautiful video but the music was far too loud that the commentary was almost inaudible.
Bricin got me here
Wow……
Where is the older clip from at the beginning of the video??
20:20 What is that dude holding? Lol
A moonshine smoothie I believe.
Here all my life . Been crawling around down north on every spot I heard about from the old ppl . Seen tons of things I bet that haven’t been filmed yet . Lots of graveyards in the woods . A waterfall you cannot see from the air or land complete canopy coverage . Coywolves keep ppl away now . . . Great !
2:55 mark, What is this lookout called and location?
That would be Cape Clear
ocome and Boondock e and for free no strings attached
Music is too loud, can’t hear the people talking
anyone living in cape breton, pls msg me
@manish, I love on the island, my name is len, I love in Marion bridge, you can get me by answering this post.
Post Script: ...But little did they know that the following year a global pandemic would flatten the tourism industry and threaten the existence of their businesses.
We're all still here my man.
@@livelifeintents good to hear. I'll be up there soon.
Our beautiful ocean planet that keeps everything alive, gives Cape Breton and many other places with rugged coast, endurance.
Stay strong and free.
Great video, and would love to use to teach my fifth graders about this part of the world, but unfortunately the small amount of profanity makes it unusable for us. If you are ever inclined, a G-rated version would get ALOT of play across the country.
I grew up there. They’re destroying the lifestyle
Don't trust da mainlanders by. The Yanks are ok tho'. When I arrived in Cape Breton from TO they thought I was from out west by. Just pullin yer leg by. Ya knows I loves ya, Right by? Wats yer fadders name by? Gods country-Cape Breton Island. May Gods warmest regards rest richly upon you.
