Luss to Balmaha Water Bus extended

Cruise Loch Lomond has announced that the Loch Lomond Water Bus service from Luss to Balmaha will now run until the end of October instead of stopping at the end of September.

Stuart Cordner from Cruise Loch Lomond said: “We have been delighted with the popularity of the successful new Luss to Balmaha cruises operating in their first full season. The Luss and Balmaha Explorers, The Capercaillie and The Wee Gem cruises have been popular with both day trippers and holidaymakers. Many visitors have taken advantage of this route which allows access to either shore of the Loch and enables them to spend time ashore for a walk, a spot of lunch and light refreshment.

“Local businesses have been extremely supportive and identified the benefit to all involved with collaborative marketing campaigns and also by selling tickets for the cruises.”

Fiona Logan, CEO of the National Park added: “The popularity of this service proves that more people are taking advantage of the opportunity to explore sites around the Loch from the water. I’m really pleased that this has been a huge success and local businesses are working together to provide a unique and special experience. For anyone who hasn’t used the service yet, I would encourage you to take advantage and use the waterbus to get to your destination. It’s the perfect day out, whether you’re taking the whole family out for a bike ride, having a leisurely walk or simply want to take in the stunning views Loch Lomond has to offer.”

Local businesses are offering discounts to people using this Water Bus service. For more details and timetables visit the website.
