Gibraltar is a British Overseas Territory and headland situated in Southern Europe. It’s dominated by the Rock of Gibraltar, a 426m-high limestone ridge.
Gibraltar is the latest focus of international buyers and is especially popular amongst UK investors looking for a slice of British life in the sunshine. Expect an attractive fiscal regime, regular direct flights to make for easy access from the UK, 300 days of sunshine a year and a secure and friendly environment.
Temperatures are around 10 degrees higher than the UK year round. This means very little use for winter coats and jumpers. Summers are consistently hot, dry and cloudless for 5 months.
The temperature makes it commonplace to eat and socialise outside. Lunching in mid-winter in the sunshine offers the starkest comparison to the short UK January days.
At just under 7km 2 in total area, land is at a premium in Gibraltar due to the limited space available. Due to this the first thing to bear in mind it that housing can be very different to what you have in the UK. Expect to have smaller rooms and less outdoor space unless you are comparing to large city accommodation.
The main language for business, daily conversation and schooling is English. Due to the close links to Spain through family and travel Spanish is also widely spoken. The Gibraltarians have their own dialect which is called Llanito.
Knowing how you stand with culture and behaviour in a foreign land is key. Having familiar laws with no surprises is very comforting. Gibraltar is very multi-cultural and its community is cosmopolitan and very welcoming to all.
It is important to feel safe. In Gibraltar this includes walking around at night without any fears. Children especially are able to have the ‘old fashioned’ kind of freedoms as the community looks after the children and everything is close at hand. The community is also protected by the border checks
