The best time to visit Scotland is the
summer, from June to August.
As mentioned on the climate page, the sea is cold even in summer.

winter: pack warm clothes, such as a sweater, a coat, a wind jacket, and a raincoat. For the Highlands and for colder periods: pack gloves, a hat, and a scarf.
In
summer: pack clothes for spring and autumn, but also a jacket and a sweater, and a raincoat or umbrella.
