What Is the Climate like in Gibraltar?

Gibraltar has a Mediterranean climate with dry and warm summers as well as mild and wet winters. Sub-zero temperatures and snowfall are not common.

Travelers will experience warm and sunny weather in the summertime. July and August are the months that have a high humidity. The temperature is for the most part below 30 degrees Celsius. There have been peaks in temperature as well as heat waves, but they are not that common. October to April is when travelers will see high amounts of precipitation.

How Safe Is Gibraltar?

The crime rate is low in Gibraltar, but there has been some petty crime. Travelers should keep an eye on their valuables. You shouldn’t walk home alone at night because street crime and violence has been known to happen. Crime against property and burglaries are rare but can still occur, and it’s better to be safe than sorry.

When you enter Gibraltar, you shouldn’t buy any kind of ticket from a ticket tout. There is not a fee to come into Gibraltar, and a ticket is not needed.

The Apes of Gibraltar

If you’re interested in animals, you should visit the Gibraltar Natural Reserve. You’ll see the Barbary macaques, which are the only monkeys living in the wild in Europe. It is said that if these creatures were to ever leave Gibraltar so would the British.

The reserve is located at the upper rock area of the island. Travelers will come upon a den where they can see the animals close up. These apes may look harmless and adorable, but they are wild and do bite. It’s possible you may see them when you go into town, so it’s important to watch your belongings and don’t feed them.

What Should I Take to Gibraltar?

Before you travel to Gibraltar, there are some things you should take on your trip.

  • Travel Documents – Be sure to have these with you in your carry-on luggage. If you are traveling on to North Africa, a visa may be required for some countries.

  • Money — Gibraltar pound (GIP) is the official currency of Gibraltar. All major credit cards are accepted and there are ATMs viable to use across Gibraltar. Traveler’s checks are also accepted.

  • Insect Repellents – Be sure to bring this key item and apply regularly.
