Most of Oban's larger hotels and pubs offer entertainment throughout the season and major events are publicized in the 'What's happening Guide' in the Scottish Tourist Board's main web site, and in the What's On page on this site. Today it is farmed along with trout, mussels, scallops and oysters in the clean, clear waters of the West Highlands. Not surprisingly, locally caught and farmed seafood features prominently in many restaurants throughout Oban where it is at its very best, fresh from the sea and local lochs. You have read about the King of Fish, so why not try to catch one yourself. Game, coarse and sea angling are available.
More information is available on our angling pages.
Another great way to explore Oban and Lorn is by boat. Various boat trips and charters are available in and around Oban. Trips to see the Gulf of Corryvreckan also available. Alternatively you can charter the boat for a half or full day cruise. Gannet visits all the best known sites in this popular area ranging from challenging wreck diving to engaging scenic diving and drift dives in the Oban and Sound of Mull area.
