Gibraltar

This morning, you’ll arrive in Gibraltar. Dominating the mouth of the Mediterranean, Gibraltar is a natural fortress and a little slice of Britain within the borders of Spain. The skyline is dominated by the imposing Rock of Gibraltar, a 426-metre-high limestone promontory. On the streets below, explore dozens of British stores and traditional pubs, and marvel that you’re a stone’s throw away from Spain. You’ll depart Gibraltar just after lunch, so order a cocktail on the Yacht Club terrace or relax in the Vitality Pool on Deck 10 while you watch the sparkling waters of the Western Mediterranean slip by.

Perched high above the city is the magnificent Alcazaba, a fortified Moorish citadel that dates back to the 10th century. It’s the second largest in Spain (behind only Granada’s famed Alhambra Palace) with three distinct compounds staggered up the peak.
