Loch Ness Monster Sightings: 2006

Nessie

The famed 1934 photograph by Dr. Kenneth Wilson of something in Loch Ness that automatically lets people know that what we are talking about are the Loch Ness Monsters.

Gary Campbell, President of The Official Loch Ness Fan Club, shares this rundown of the sightings of Nessie for 2006, thusfar:

6 October 2006

Nick Thurston and Emma Louise Jones were holidaying at the loch when they saw what they say was Nessie from the Jacobite Queen. “As we sailed along I saw a hump, much like that of a bridge, which was dark brown in colour and was relative to Urquhart Castle,” explained Miss Jones.

11 August 2006

Gordon MacDonald and his family saw something rise out of the water to a height of 5 or 6 metres, three quarters of the way across the loch. They said that the creature was ‘massive’ and created a large wash. They were fishing at Dores at the time and the sighting was witnessed by 4 people.

28 January 2006

An Inverness lady was driving south at 11.30 am on the A82 near the youth hostel at Allt Sigh. She stopped as she saw a black cone shaped creature circle round in a whirlpool like motion about one quarter of the way across the loch. Familiar with the loch she said that she had never seen anything like it before. The sighting lasted 4 minutes and the weather conditions were clear with no wind.
