Oban - Bay to Kerrera in Scotland

🇬🇧 Argyll and Bute · United Kingdom — Altitude 6 m

Local time UTC+0Checked 116 viewsHDBeach

This live stream looks out over Oban Bay on the west coast of Scotland, towards the low green shape of Kerrera island. It suits anyone planning a ferry crossing, a coastal walk or simply wanting to see how the sea and sky look on the western edge of the Highlands right now.

The town on the bay

Oban sits on a curved bay in Argyll and Bute, often called the seafood capital of Scotland. Its harbour is the hub for ferries to the Inner and Outer Hebrides, and the town is built steeply up the hillside behind the waterfront. Kerrera, just across the water, is a quiet island reached by a short passenger ferry and known for its walking trails and sheltered anchorage.

What to watch for

The title points to a view across the bay, so expect boats moving in and out, ferries on their crossings and the changing light on the water. Depending on the view, you may see gulls, small leisure craft and the shifting cloud over the hills. Early mornings and late evenings often bring the clearest, softest light over the sound.

Weather and getting there

Oban has a mild, wet maritime climate, with the wettest months in autumn and winter and the most settled weather from late spring into summer. Layers and waterproofs are sensible at any time of year. The town is reached by road and rail, and the nearby airport and other Oban cameras are listed on this page for a wider look at the area.
