Gibraltar - the Rock or el Peñon? The major cause of dispute between Spain and Britain is a towering crag looming over the straits of the same name. Its main attractions are its apes (really tailless monkeys) and its tunnels, military structures carved out of the mountain from the end of the eighteenth century onwards.

Gibraltar History
From its Jurassic origins to the present day.

Selected Links

Gibnet.com
An unofficial portal for Gibraltar which has all the information you could ask for, and has recently had a lot of hard work put into it. The 'Facts' page, though based on the CIA's World Factbook, expands on this and updates it where necessary, while the 'Links' section has provided much useful material for this page.

The Gibraltar Home Page
Once definitive source for all kinds of information about this British colony (oh, all right, "overseas territory") on the Spanish mainland. Though still calling itself the "official site," it is now owned and maintained by an ISP and is much more commercial.

The Gibraltar Magazine
A very attractively designed on-line version of this monthly magazine for "residents and frequent visitors."

Government of Gibraltar London Website
I am not exactly what this site's name means, or why the Government of Gibraltar should need a London website. But attractions, nature, getting married and shopping are just some of the matters thoroughly and entertainingly dealt with here. Those with less than perfect eyesight will find the minute typeface something of a strain, though.

Miss Gibraltar
The unusual thing about this beauty pageant is that the contestants seem to be actually from Gibraltar.

Virtual Tour of Gibraltar
If a series of photos is a virtual tour, Gibraltar is French.

What to See in Gibraltar
Sights in Gibraltar, from gibnet.com. Some more interesting than others, if we are honest - Gibraltar's flag in Lego would seem a non-starter as an international tourist attraction.

Hotels
Hotel Club
This booking service covers a very wide range of places in both Spain and Portugal.

Venere.com
An on-line booking service with great discounts.

Car Hire
Auto Europe
Car rental, motor homes, minibuses... And an interesting short-term lease option.
