GibraltarTravel Guide

Gibraltar colloquially known as The Rock, (or simply 'Gib'), is an overseas territory of the United Kingdom on the southern coast of Spain at the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea. The people are British Citizens. It is a unique place for the curious traveller and when seen from a historical viewpoint, Gibraltar is unlike any other area on earth. So many different countries have claimed Gibraltar, each leaving an indelible mark on the area, as well as remnants of their own occupation of Gibraltar.

The inside of the rock is an absolute labyrinth with the secret internal roads and tunnels 4 times longer than those on the surface.

The Rock is a popular tourist attraction, particularly among British tourists and residents in the southern coast of Spain and Tourism is a significant industry in Gibraltar. Gibraltar is a popular port for cruise ships and attracts day visitors from resorts in Spain. It is also a popular shopping destination, and all goods and services are VAT free. Many of the large British high street chains have branches or franchises in Gibraltar including Marks & Spencer and Mothercare. Branches and franchises of international retailers such as Tommy Hilfiger and Sunglass Hut are also present in Gibraltar, as is the Spanish clothing company Mango.

Things to See and Do

Europa Point – where the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean, and from which the coast of Africa can be seen.
Upper Rock a military installation, and nature reserve where the famous Barbary Macaques monkeys live.
Great Siege Tunnels The famous set of tunnels inside the Rock, running for about thirty miles. An amazing feat, once used as a defence system.
The Moorish Castle Dating to 1333, the Moorish castle was one of the largest in the vicinity, some say in Europe, and still seems to dominate the area.
St Michaels Cave An impressive natural grotto used by the Neolithic inhabitants of the Rock. This Gibraltar attraction has been unique and visited since Roman times and during World War II the cave was prepared as an emergency hospital.
Dolphin Watching – short trips in the bay (several times a day) – there are plenty of playful dolphins to see
The Mediterranian Steps – for those not afraid of walking (and with a head for heights), this is a walk that starts at Jew's Gate bird observatory and winds its way up the east side of the rock to the top. The views are fantastic. If you don't fancy the uphill struggle, you can always get the cable car up and then come down this way.
