Oban (Scottish Gaelic: An t-Oban, which translates as Kleine baai in Dutch) is a town on the west coast of Scotland. Despite its population of 12,467, it is the largest town between Helensburgh and Fort William. During the tourist season, the number of people staying in Oban can reach around 25,000. The townscape is largely defined by McCaig's Tower, inspired by the Colosseum.
