Nestled in a horseshoe bay and sheltered by nearby islands, Oban is the ideal escape. Its busy port transports travelers to the surrounding lush green islands of Scotland but it would be a mistake to not spend some time enjoying Oban before floating away. Climb to the top of McCaig's Tower to get a panoramic view of the beach and the island of Kerrera. Freshly caught seafood is the star product in Oban’s lively pubs and fantastic restaurants. Walk along its sandy beaches and embark on a boating expedition to see sharks and other marine wildlife. Read more about how to spend your next holiday in Oban.
