What is recorded here
Port an Obain is shown as a bay on the public map of Argyll and Bute. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Port an Obain consists of sedimentary rock formations, likely Carboniferous in age, formed from ancient sandstone and shale deposits. The feature is notable for its coastal erosion patterns, which expose layered rock structures characteristic of the western Scottish coastline.
