"Good luck if you’ve come here to witness the eponymous monster—though, given the dark, brooding waters of Loch Ness, seemingly anything is possible. At the very least, you’re bound to enjoy some beautiful scenery, from verdant shores to snowcapped peaks. One of the best ways to experience the loch is by boat tour, several of which leave daily from the Loch Ness Centre & Exhibition in Inverness. Alternatively, you can drive up the A82 highway along the lake’s western shore, stopping at such spots as Castle Urquhart, a romantic stone ruin that’s some 1,000 years old."

"If you're not too afraid of the Loch Ness monster, wild swimming in Britain's longest lake is a must for the bucket list. Experts recommend starting from the small beach opposite Urquhart Castle and wading down through the fields. Hopefully it'll just be the cold that nips..."

This is a great place to enjoy with family friends and loved ones. There are numerous stopovers along the way while driving to enjoy and appreciate the different angles of these Loch. One needs to be patient and appreciative of the surroundings of the Loch. And if you are adventurious take the B roads along the Loch and you will appreciate even more of the Loch. Thank you and have a great day. God bless 🙏

Lake is very picturesque. My friend slammed on the brakes, spilling a fizzy in my lap, when he claimed to have seen something pop up out of the water. No pictures - it’s just another fishing story!

Good place to come. The Loch is not particularly better than the others besides the legend of Nessie. Fairly touristy but pretty good. If you are in Scotland good place to see. Maybe just maybe you will find the Loch Ness Monster hidden lurking in the depths.

What a beautiful and amazing fresh water lake , we spent two hours in the cruise, seeing the beautiful nature, water mountains , we enjoyed it a lot, we also searched for the Nessy monster, but was difficult to see , It is unforgettable time and hope to visit it again Highly recommended once you visit Inverness or Isle of Sky

Such a mesmerising view, serene and beautiful. We visited on a sunny day but our guide told us it’s even more beautiful when it rains. The stories of Nessie kept us busy and wondering, imagining how the monster may look like.

Took part in a Loch Ness day tour, basically it was a loop around Loch Ness tour. It had many stops, including Fall of Foyers, Shuishe Viewpoint, Fort Augustus, the Old Bridge in Invermoriston, Drumnadrochit, Urquhart Castle. It was a quick and easy way to explore the lake area, it was enjoyable and rewarding.

Drove 7 hours from Manchester to Loch Ness for a couple of pictures before travelling to our destination 3 hours back in Creiff. BUT it was worth it! You're not going to travel all the way to Scotland and NOT say you have been to try to find Nessie!
