What is Europa Point

Europa Point is the southernmost point of Gibraltar. At the end of the Rock of Gibraltar, the area is flat and occupied by such features as a playing field and a few buildings. On a clear day there is a good view of the Strait of Gibraltar; Africa, including the Rif Mountains of Morocco; and the Bay of Gibraltar and the Spanish towns on its edge.

There are three notable buildings, the new Ibrahim-al-Ibrahim Mosque, the Roman Catholic shrine of Our Lady of Europe, and a lighthouse.

Europa Point was formerly linked with the Eastern side of the Rock, including Sandy Bay and Catalan Bay, by the Dudley Ward Tunnel, which was closed for safety reasons in 2002, after a fatal rock fall.

Great place for windsurfing and kitesurfing! Long sandy beaches, strong winds. Good for advanced surfers, wouldn't recomend to beginners.

Go for a spin by boat and see those hilarious monkeys climbing on mountains. Gibraltar is so different than Spain, but as we all know it isn't a part of Spain either. I recommend you to take a sightseeingtour by boat, which takes you around the cape.
