Loch Ness Cruise from Inverness

Discover the famous Loch Ness on this cruise from Inverness, about 20 minutes away. This is a one hour boat experience on one of the UK's largest fresh lochs. You will have the chance to search for Nessie, the infamous lake monster, thanks to the sonar system that will be used on the boat, where you can sit either on the deck or inside the boat.

Throughout the experience you will have the opportunity to marvel at the 360-degree views. For example, one of the attractions you will see is the medieval Urquhart Castle. This historic fortress dates back to the 13th century and has a long and rich past, including battles between Scottish and English forces during the Scottish Wars of Independence.

Regarding sonar to try and find Nessie, it works to scan the depths of the loch for any signs of unusual activity or movement, which could be indicative of the presence of the elusive monster.

It should be noted that the legend of Nessie has been the subject of great fascination for many years and has become an important part of Scottish folklore. The first recorded sighting dates back to the 6th century, when the Irish monk St Columba encountered a 'water beast' in the River Ness.

Even if you're on your own, you'll also have the chance to have a drink inside the boat, where you'll have free wifi.
