Oban

Oban is a hidden gem located in the West Highlands of Scotland. This seafood capital is a three-hour train ride from Glasgow through scenic routes. Truly relaxing and enjoyable the train ride is highly recommended if you are happy to leave the car behind.

The harbour is scenic and from here you can take ferry boats to some of the Inner Hebrides islands such as Lismore, Isle of Mull, and Iona amongst others.

It may be small but Oban is charming and pretty. The harbour is the heart of the action. Stay central in Oban to experience its unique atmosphere and the friendly locals. Make sure you try the seafood places dotted along the harbour front.
