Underneath the water of Loch Ness are two seperate words many people combine the two words as the lochness monster is more of a loch than a lake due to the monster people refer to the loch as a lake but as an arm of the sea it's appropriate to remind people the significance of a loch reaches out to the vast atlantic ocean.
