Loch Morar Invernesshire lies about a quarter of a mile inland from silver-sand-fringed Morar Bay. It is one of Scotland's geological freaks. The deepest loch in Britain, its depth is 987 ft and, though it lies close to the shallow seas to the west of Scotland, there is no other equivalent depth until the Continental Shelf dips into the Atlantic 170 miles north-west between St Kilda and Rockall. |

Loch Morar is said to be the home of 'Morag', a sister to the Loch Ness monster. Many sightings of a strange beast have been reported over the years.
As with 'Nessie', no conclusive evidence has yet been presented to verify its existence. |
