Translated in Scottish Gaelic, Oban means The Little Bay, and people remember this beautiful area for many reasons. Tourists love eating Oban’s fantastic seafood, admiring its breathtaking scenery, and immersing themselves in the town’s history.

And in summer, tourists love watching its spectacular sunsets.

Oban is the biggest town between Helensburgh and Fort William and is a popular tourist hub on the Northwest coast of Scotland that leads to many of the area’s surrounding islands and historic sites.

With its sweeping bay, beautiful harbour and stunning scenic views, Oban has been a popular visitor destination since Victorian times.

Did you know? Oban and neighbouring Lorn have a long and interesting history which began in the Dark Ages with Kings and Chiefs building castles and forts along the coast. In 500AD a powerful Irish Lord named Loairn established his Kingdom just outside Oban at Dunollie and gave his name to the district.
