Take your kids on family holidays in Gibraltar and monkey around with the iconic Barbary Apes on the Rock of Gibraltar. Later, relax on a boat trip and watch wild dolphins on your family holiday. In Gibraltar, your whole family will love swimming, sunbathing and playing on one of the island's six beaches.
As a highlight of your family holiday in Gibraltar, ride the Cable Car to the top of the Rock for far-reaching views of Gibraltar, Spain, and even Africa on a good day. Show the kids the dramatic stalactites and stalagmites of St Michael's Cave and widen their eyes exploring the 19th-century maze of Siege Tunnels. Who says fun family holidays can't also be educational? Take your family to visit the Gibraltar Museum and become an instant expert on Gibraltar's culture and history.
Fancy a break from the beach on your family holidays in Gibraltar? Try and spot buzzards, partridges and, of course, apes at the Upper Rock Nature Reserve more than 1312 feet above sea level. Take your family sailing or on a boat trip to watch dolphins. You can even see Morocco's Rif Mountains across the Strait of Gibraltar from the lighthouse at Europa Point on a cloudless day.
For your family holidays, Gibraltar makes an ideal base to explore further afield. Head across the Strait of Gibraltar to Morocco. You can buy spices and haggle in the souk (market) there, and the kids get to tell their friends that they even went to Africa on their family holiday. Explore the coast or inland towns and cities of southern Spain such as Jerez and Ronda. Along with Estepona's Sunday morning market they're all popular excursions that the family will enjoy.
