Perched at the convergence of the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, the Rock of Gibraltar has captivated visitors for centuries with its breathtaking beauty and natural marvels. Among its most famous attractions are the Barbary Apes, the only free-roaming primates in Europe, alongside stunning vistas that leave onlookers in awe and a military significance that has sparked countless conflicts throughout history.
The population of Gibraltar has flourished into a vibrant, cosmopolitan community, bolstered by a burgeoning financial district and a thriving online gaming industry established on land reclaimed from the sea. The historic heart of the old town, characterized by elegant colonial architecture, and the charming former fishing village of Catalan Bay on the eastern side of the Rock are complemented by modern residences for locals and luxurious homes for the affluent residents of the area. Gibraltar offers a variety of shopping options that rival those found in the UK.
Since being ruled by the British in 1703 and enduring numerous struggles and conflicts, Gibraltar has transformed into a prosperous destination, attracting thousands of visitors from Malaga and the Costa Del Sol, as well as serving as a popular cruise port. While most residents communicate in Spanish, they are all fluent in English, having received their education in the UK. It’s common to overhear conversations infused with Spanglish!
