Gibraltar, the Rock, is a great destination for a 1 or 2-day stop.

You can take a taxi tour round the Rock where you will come face to face with the only monkeys in Europe (a relic of national pride), you can explore the Upper Rock Nature Reserve, the galleries and tunnels that were created in the Rock's interior during the Great Siege wars, or delve into some of the natural caves that were discovered purely by chance and exhibit impressive stalactite and stalagmite formations.

Its offshore status also makes it very convenient to purchase duty free goods or to open bank account, and you will not encounter any difficulty in communicating with the bilingual locals.

Rápidos del Sur ferries operates from Gibraltar to the African Continent with high speed catamaran.
