GIBRALTAR

Gibraltar dominates the entrance to the Mediterranean between the southern tip of Spain and the continent of Africa. Known as a popular tax-free tourist haven in Spain, Gibraltar is already a world-renowned thriving international centre of finance. Gibraltar was once regarded as a subject of dispute for years between the United Kingdom and Spain.



Gibraltar is home to the famous rock of Gibraltar. This impressive structure is clearly visible from the mountains in Morocco on a clear day as well as from the many areas of Costa del Sol region. The Gibraltar airport is proud to be one of the gateways to Costa de la Luz and the western part of Costa del Sol. Regular flights to Gibraltar are offered by the Monarch and British Airways.

Gibraltar is located in the south western part of Europe bordering the Strait of Gibraltar. It links the North Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea on the southern coast of Spain.

Gibraltar's main source of income comes from its position as an international conference centre, shipping trade, and banking. Contributing to the local economy is the decrease in the presence of British military. The tourism also contributes to the economy as there are many popular tourist destinations such as the 426-meter high Rock and the area where 250 Barbary ages are located.
