1.) Dolphin boat tour<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n
One of the great things about Gibraltar is that it\u2019s fully surrounded by the gorgeous Mediterranean Sea. This all means that there are a heap of wildlife, including dolphins that frequent the shores and the wider Strait of Gibraltar.<\/p>\n
Make sure to book this Gibraltar dolphin tour before arriving. This four-hour tour is totally incredible from start to finish.\u00a0 Just be sure to book ahead because believe me when we say that it is a popular activity that gets filled up.<\/p>\n
Onboard, you\u2019ll have a spotter and a qualified skipper that will take you to some of the dolphin\u2019s favourite spots. Not only that, you\u2019ll even get to see the views of nearby Morocco and the coastline as you surf the strait.\u00a0<\/p>\n

You have not been to Gibraltar unless you have walked across the Gibraltar Skywalk. Well, obviously you have but it\u2019s one of the best things to do in Gibraltar for views.<\/p>\n
Trust me, the views from the Gibraltar Skywalk are spectacular. In fact, you\u2019ll be able to see the continent of Africa and across to Spain whilst overlooking the area.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now, the glass floor can be a bit daunting if you\u2019re scared of heights. That being said, the glass has been tested and can hold the weight of over 300+ people.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Afterwards, head over to Amar\u2019s Kosher Bakery for some of the best coffee and tasty pastries.\u00a0<\/p>\n
3.) Go to Europe Point<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n
Perched in the South District, visiting Europe Point is one of the best things to do in Gibraltar when travelling around the area<\/p>\n
The area is gorgeous and you have to make sure to check out the Europa Point Lighthouse and pop over to Harding\u2019s Battery.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Europe Point is a 19th-century old lighthouse that has a chapel and a mosque.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This is the best place for history lovers to go to learn about the history of Gibraltar and well worth taking a gander if you\u2019re wanting to step away from the streets.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Afterwards, book a table at Bistro Point Restaurant for a gorgeous sunset dinner. The views from here are lovely.\u00a0<\/p>\n

One of the highest points on the rock, visiting the O\u2019Hara Battery is one of the best things to do in Gibraltar for views.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It\u2019s around 425 meters high but feels even higher at the top. Trust me when I say, this destination is worth it\u2026 even if it is a trek.<\/p>\n
Once used as a military base, O\u2019Hara\u2019s Battery is now visitable (but does close at some points in the year).\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Take your time up the steep staircase. Just keep your eyes peeled for those pesky monkeys.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
They can be pretty demanding if they see you eating or drinking.\u00a0<\/p>\n
5.) Gibraltar Cable Car<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n
Fancy scaling the rock without any arduous walk or hike? Then get yourself over to the Gibraltar Cable Car which takes only 6 minutes to climb over 400 metres.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At the top station, and on the way up,\u00a0you\u2019ll get a scenic view of all of Gibraltar and the surrounding region.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Oh, and don\u2019t forget you can pop down (from the top station) to St Michael\u2019s Cave. It\u2019s well worth going inside and easy to pair up both activities on one trip up the rock.\u00a0<\/p>\n
