Explore the mystery of Scotland's most beloved legend during this scenic excursion to Loch Ness and Beauly Town.
Loch Ness
Depart the pier for the scenic, approximately 75-minute drive south to the banks of Loch Ness.
Loch Ness Scenic Drive
This tour represents a unique opportunity to look for the evasive Loch Ness Monster, which has baffled some of the world's most notable researchers for decades. The deep lake, ('loch' in Gaelic), has drawn visitors from all over the world in search of the monster. The loch is 23 miles (about 37 kilometres) long, one mile (1.6 kilometres) wide and 755 feet (230 metres) deep.
During the ride, pause for photos; enjoy highland views, passing wildlife and the chance to glimpse the Loch Ness Monster while learning about the history and everyday life of the area.
Beauly Town
After the photo stop, continue your approximately 45 minute scenic drive passing through the charming town of Beauly. Well known for its lovely flower displays and home to the now ruined 13th Century priory in the heart of the village, Beauly boasts a lovely, spacious central square, laid out by Baron Lovat in the 1840's. Enjoy approximately one-hour of free time to stretch your legs before returning to your ship on an approximately 45 minute scenic drive.
