The pretty coastal village of Avoch overlooks Avoch Bay and is situated on the south side of the area, known as The Black Isle, in the magical Scottish Highlands. Once a busy fishing village, today it is home to many pleasure crafts and this gives the village a relaxed holiday atmosphere. The narrow streets run at right angles to the shore, with their pretty stone cottages and excellent local facilities, including shops, pubs and hotels. From the quaint harbour, there are daily sailing trips out onto the waters of the Moray Firth where dolphins thrive in abundance. Avoch is also well situated for touring the area and exploring the many villages along the Moray Firth coastline. From this central location, Loch Ness, Inverness, Skye and the Cairngorm National Park are all within a pleasant drive, making Avoch an excellent base for discovering this beautiful corner of Scotland.
