Why Gibraltar?

Due to our geographical location, we are very fortunate to be a multicultural, multilingual destination, with Morocco and Spain just a stone’s throw away. Gibraltar is a British Overseas Territory that juts out into the ocean from the Iberian peninsula. Our coastline is punctuated with beautiful beaches - we are surrounded by water with Spain lying just beyond the runway on the fourth. On a clear day, Africa's mountainous coast is visible in the distance as ­ Morocco is just a 20 minute flight away! The views from up the Rock are stunning; there aren't many other places in the world where you can see two continents and three separate countries from one viewpoint. Although English is our official language, most locals are also fluent in Spanish.

Activities

Another reason to choose Gibraltar as your language learning destination is the abundance of activities to fit in around your study schedule. Visit the top of the Rock to pay the local macaques a visit; travel around colourfully-lit caves and through Gibraltar’s old wartime tunnels to learn about their history; hop on a dolphin watching tour around the bay; meander around the stunning The Botanic Gardens, The Alameda and drop in to its Wildlife Conservation Park. Not forgetting, learning about our successful UNESCO bid or joining us at one of our multitude of events!
