Loch Linnhe (known in Gaelic as An Linne Dhubh upstream of Corran and as An Linne Sheileach downstream of Corran) is a sea loch on the west coast of Scotland.

Loch Linnhe extends 15 kilometres and is an average of 2 kilometres wide. It opens onto the Firth of Lorne at its southwestern end by Loch Leven. The town of Fort William lies at the northeast end of the loch at the mouth of the River Lochy. Loch Eil feeds into Loch Linnhe at the latter's northernmost point.

During the summer months Loch Linnhe is aligned with the setting sun, making it a popular location for photographers.
