But this one has really got people convinced.

A holidaymaker spotted humps moving through the famous loch during his holiday to the Scottish beauty spot last week and managed to capture it on camera.

Tony Bligh’s sensational video sparked the interest of respected long-time Nessie hunter Adrian Shine.

aken at midday last week from the Wellington lay-by on the A82, it appears to show a series of equally placed humps moving swiftly through the water.

And many believe it shows the curved, brown back of the monster that has alluded scientists for century.

"I was at the top of the steps when I noticed something out on the water about three-quarters out," Mr Bligh told The Inverness Inquirer.

He said there appeared to be four to five humps about six foot apart moving at the same time.

"It was quite long," he added.

"The humps were consistently the same length apart. I don’t know what it was. It was very unusual."

The Dublin local took the footage to staff in VisitScotland’s Inverness office in the hope of finding some answers.

"They were really excited by it," he said.

"It is interesting everyone who has seen it on my telephone."

Not everyone's convinced, however.

Some claim the clip shows nothing more than ripples in the wake of a passing boat.

Commeting under the YouTube video, Robert Seymour speculated that it was former First Minister Alex Salmond, "doing the backstroke".

It will bring some hope to Nessie fans who were disappointed after believing they had finally found the truth about what lurks in the Scottish lochs.

An incredible sonar image in the shape of the creature purported to prove Nessie is among us once and for all.

The new tech appeared to reveal a 30ft creature lurking some 500ft below the surface.

But it was nothing more than a Loch Ness monster model from the 1969 film The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes.
