Loch Ness Centre & Exhibition
Loch Ness Centre & Exhibition Review
If you're in search of the infamous beast Nessie, head to the Loch Ness Centre & Exhibition, which explores the facts and the fakes, the photographs, the unexplained sonar contacts, and the sincere testimony of eyewitnesses. You'll have to make up your own mind on Nessie. All that's really known is that Loch Ness's huge volume of water has a warming effect on the local weather, making the loch conducive to mirages in still, warm conditions. Whether or not the bestia aquatilis lurks in the depths is more than ever in doubt since 1994, when the man who took one of the most convincing photos of Nessie confessed on his deathbed that it was a fake. You can take a cruise of the loch from the center, too.
