North Pier Pontoons
North Pier Pontoons puts you right in the heart of Oban town, making it one of the few marinas where you can step off your boat and straight into a lively seaside hub with shops, restaurants, and ferry connections on your doorstep. It's a proper working harbour with real atmosphere — Oban is the seafood capital of Scotland, so you're in the right place to grab fresh caught scallops or a dram of whisky without going far. Check berthing charges on their website or raise the Harbour Master on VHF ch12 before arrival.
