In 565, St. Columba claimed to have saved someone from a "sea monster", but this was in River Ness not Loch Ness
The first record of a "beast" in the Loch or River Ness is in the account of the life of Saint Columba, written by the Irish monk Adomnán, somewhere around the start of the 7th Century AD. However the "monster" really only began to be recorded with the building of roads alongside the loch in the 1930's.
Saint Columba, an Irish monk, saw sightings of it. For more details go to your local library. Nobody has found it hence why it is called a myth. We cannot be sure if it is real.
The earliest sighting is widely believed to be St. Columba in the 6th Century CE

The first reported sighting of Nessie was by Saint Columba in 565. Sightings have been reported more frequently since the late 19th century. The first photograph of the alleged creature was taken in 1934. The most recent sighting was a video captured in May 2007, which appears to show a large creature moving across the loch just under the surface of the water.
