The town is the seat of a Roman Catholic diocese and hosts a military academy. Tourists in Obala may visit the somewhat derelict Luna Park whose main attraction is a swimming pool. Not far from Obala are the Nachtigal Falls, actually a series of rapids in the Sanaga River. It has one fairly nice hotel and a large open-air market. The town's football club is called 'Tarzan'. The language spoken is Eton, a Beti language.

Obala is a center for cocoa farming.[1][2] The town is home to several internationally owned cocoa processing plants.[3][4] In 2024, a chocolate factory began construction.[5][6]
