Rock of Gibraltar

The Rock of Gibraltar and the Parque Frontera offer beautiful views of the border between Spain and Gibraltar. The rock of Gibraltar is linked to the legend that it was created by a patron saint, Hercules, when he separated Europe and Africa by gathering two mountains and throwing them into the Mediterranean Sea. The Parque Frontera is a large walled park that covers more than 800 metres of a strip of land between the two countries and is where you can actually see the dividing line between Spain and Gibraltar. From the park, you can get stunning views across the Bay of Algeciras and the iconic Rock of Gibraltar. There is also a network of paths and trails that extend from the park out towards the sea, so this is a great place to explore.
