r/gibraltar

After 15 years, the Google Maps team has returned to the British territory of Gibraltar, the last place on the Iberian Peninsula with Gen 3 Imagery dating back to 2011. Coverage in this area is unique because it was the first time Google tested Gen 3 cameras in this part of Europe, although there are still quite major gaps, and part of the coverage is broken in some sections.

Look out for google cars resembling this:

Apparently the border is coming down on July 15/16th do we have any idea what the new system for the border may be or can anyone just enter and leave

Thanks

Hey everyone! Me & my Fiance are getting married in Gibraltar on the 03/08/2026 at 1pm.
We are looking for 2 people to be our witnesses 💒 as we are just going on our own.
Is anyone able to help us out? Or point us in the right direction?
Much appreciated x

I won't get into it in detail for the outsiders but as a summary there have always been political issues in flying from gibraltar to non-uk European destinations. This can be direct politics (overflight issues) or business threats (e.g. Spain is a huge market for airlines and theybdo not wish to piss the government off). A few years ago after an agreement I think it was Iberia started filing Gib - BCN but it flopped.

With all the shengen stuff going on, what flights would you like to see from the airport? where do you think would be good for Gib? I know Malta in theory is a top destinstion. Where else? Do you think flights to countries other than the UK will be available

Hi all, I am just planning my wedding on the Sunborn in May 27 so just getting some ideas together. Does anyone know if there are any Caricature Artists in Gibraltar?

Hello everyone! Now that the cable car doesnt work, how can one climb the rock without going on foot? Ive heard there are buses but are they always there or is it a tour thing? Do I need to buy the ticket ahead of time or at the spot? Im honestly quite confused. Thank you in advance
