Excursions

In addition to the attractions Gibraltar has to offer, it is also the perfect base from which to explore farther afield. The energetic traveler has nearby Spain and Morocco to visit.

Estepona's fascinating Sunday morning market is a favourite trip. You could travel to Jerez on a sherry-tasting excursion, or visit Ronda; the beautiful old town perched on a plateau in Spain's mountains. Take a trip to ancient Seville or drive to Marbella and spot celebrities at the famous marina of Puerto Banus. The Spanish port of Algeciras is about 12km by road to the west of Gibraltar. It has a rail terminal and regular trains run into the beautiful Andalucian countryside giving access to Ronda, Cordoba and Madrid.

Alternatively, a short ferry crossing will take you to Morocco where you can buy spices and haggle over bargains in the souk. All this adds up to making Gibraltar an even more attractive destination

For those wishing to travel to Tangiers independently please visit www.frs.es for further information on times, prices, etc.
