Beauly Firth

The Beauly Firth is a firth in northern Scotland. It is the outlet of the River Beauly, and is bounded at one end by Beauly and at the other by Inverness (North Kessock and South Kessock), where it empties into the Moray Firth. The Kessock Ferry crossed at the eastern end since the 15th Century.[1] Today, the A9 crosses on the Kessock Bridge.

The River Ness empties into the Beauly Firth after flowing from Loch Ness by way of Inverness.
