At less than seven square kilometers the island of Gibraltar is small but perfectly formed and a fun departure from the neighbouring Spanish mainland. Visitors to the British territory enjoy feeding the Barbary Apes at breakfast time and then heading off along the Spanish south coast after lunch with car hire in Gibraltar.

Gibraltar offers the visitor a very British experience with the Spanish sunshine on their backs, mixing a high street and pubs with the Mediterranean Sea and a balmy climate. Cheap car hire in Gibraltar is the ideal way to explore Spain’s famous south coast.

Gibraltar’s Airport is small but functional and it is the perfect place from which to collect your car rental in Gibraltar. A small bridge connects the island to mainland Spain itself and once across the bridge the traveler has the whole of the south of Spain to see at their leisure.

Picking up a rental car in Gibraltar having flown in there is a great way to avoid the crowds at Spain’s Malaga Airport on arrival. Once on the road the tourist can make their way to such famous holiday destinations as Torremolinos, Fuengirola, Puerto Banus and Marbella along Spain’s A7 motorway.

Any adventurous traveller who likes to do things a little differently from the masses can benefit from flying into Gibraltar Airport, enjoying a day or two of British culture there and then heading off into Spain. Renting a car on Gibraltar makes for a very different beginning to a holiday.
