Information
GIBRALTAR
Situated at the gateway to the Mediterranean, Gibraltar enjoys a delightful sub-tropical climate and boasts some of the best marine based activities in the world. The city’s three marinas are regarded as being amongst the finest in Europe, offering plentiful berthing, excellent marine services and much more. Queensway Quay, located right in the centre of town, is a British naval base, it is also a popular place to dine and drink with numerous bars and restaurants situated around the harbour sides. Marina Bay offers 24hr service and has over 200 berths with state-of-the-art computerised TV and satellite facilities. The tranquil, yet tidal conditions of the harbour make Gibraltar a favourite destination for yachtsmen seeking to attain sailing qualifications and the various schools offer courses ranging from Competent Crew to the most advanced RYA certificates.
Besides the excellent weather, gorgeous scenery and wonderful beaches Gibraltar’s biggest attraction is it’s duty free/VAT status and the area around Main Street is a paradise for those addicted to retail therapy. Here you can buy up-market clothing, jewellery, leather goods and perfumes at truly affordable prices. Casemates Square at the end of Main Street was once a place of public executions but today it is the liveliest place in town, filled with trendy outdoor restaurants, stylish cafes and busy bars. The city has entertainment to suit all, from theatre to cinema, casino to dance club, but don’t expect any early nights.
Gibraltar really does have it all. A vibrant and stunning centre steeped in history; some of the best water sports, diving and fishing to be found in the Europe; nightlife second to none; scenery to die for; prices that are definitely right and a friendly ambience it would be difficult to match anywhere else in the world. Is it any wonder that visitors to this most beautiful of cities return time after time?

THE SHOP
The Sheppard’s name and famous blue logo has been familiar with yachtsmen cruising through the Mediterranean and further afield for over 70 years.
Sheppard’s used to be known as a small and friendly marina with a good chandlery shop and, even though the marina is now part of Ocean Village, the chandlery shop is still the one stop shop for yachties it has always been. It is located at the exit of the covered car park at Ocean Village.
The majority of yachts which make up the market in Gibraltar are serious, long distance cruisers. These boats are hard on their equipment and have quite different requirements to those of a day-boat or luxury day-cruiser.
Sheppard’s specialises in the sailing cruisers sector but also covers power cruisers and day boats. The standard stuff is all available, such as ropes, fenders, paints and pumps.
THE WORKSHOP
Sheppard’s workshop operates a repair service for most equipment found on a modern yacht and can replace rigging or install new hardware and systems.
We are dealers for Mercury Mercruiser and Volvo Penta engines with officially trained mechanics. While we specialise in Mercury and Volvo Penta engines we also service or repair the many other makes too.
We offer equipment installation, electrical system repairs, GRP repairs, rigging, stainless steel fabrication, machining and all mechanical repairs. We can haul out motor boats up to 4 tons displacement.
Yacht Electrics and Electronics
Sheppard’s Chandlery specialises in the sale and installation of Raymarine equipment, and prices are generally 15% below the UK RRP ex VAT.
Sheppard’s also offer Victron equipment at generally lower prices than are available in the UK including Lithium Smart batteries

Restaurants
Why Zoca?
The restaurant is named after the drummer in which it is located: Zoca Flank.
The unusual name of the battery comes from the Arabic name for a market, soko. There was a meat market (soko) around the battery area since at least the 17th century and was used as such until the 19th century, when the slaughterhouse moved to the eastern part of the neutral terrain between Gibraltar and Spain.
Zoca Tavern is a restaurant with a wide and elaborate menu of tapas and dishes, although our specialty is grilled meat, we have several types of cuts of meat and from different origins . We have several rooms and our appreciated terrace, we are a perfect place for business meetings and family meals, since we have the option of making the entrance to our dining rooms private.

It occupies the former warehouse of an early 19th Century Merchant House.

The Mediterranean influence can be seen in the extensive use of extra virgin olive oil, fresh fish and seasonal local vegetables.
The lunch menu features five ‘specials of the day’ on the chalk boards which change three times per week, fresh fish on Wednesdays, an ever popular salad bar served alongside a range of our very popular delicious fresh quiches and other vegetarian options ..
Homemade cakes and traditional afternoon high-tea bring the day to a close. Not only has Sacarellos become a local meeting place but it has also become a local cultural centre. There is always an art exhibition

Visitor Attractions
Welcome to the Gibraltar Botanic Gardens.
The Alameda Gardens were founded in 1816 at the initiative of the Governor, General George Don in order to provide an area for recreation for the residents of Gibraltar. For many years they served this purpose but in the 1970s they fell into a state of disrepair. The Gibraltar Botanic Gardens project began in June 1991 when the Government of Gibraltar contracted a firm of environmental managers, Wildlife (Gibraltar), to restore the gardens and convert them into a botanic garden.
The Gardens therefore aim to: restore the aesthetic beauty and interest of the Alameda for the benefit of visitors to the gardens establish a living collection representative of Gibraltar and its hinterland; display a collection of plants from Mediterranean climatic zones around the world; contribute towards the conservation of the flora of Gibraltar and its hinterland; establish a collection of succulents from around the world; contribute towards the dissemination of information about plants, their economic value and their conservation by means of an active educational programme.

With its impressive backdrop of luxury apartments, restaurants, shops and bars, Queensway Quay Marina nestles in the heart of Gibraltar giving easy access to all of the attractions it has to offer.
Gibraltar has long been known as a convenient stop over for yachts en route to and from the Mediterranean, but we now also offer an excellent package for long term berthing in our newly expanded marina.
Queensway Quay Marina is one of the few places where it is perfectly safe to leave your yacht for long periods without any worries. Unlike harbours along the south coast of Spain which are often the hub of nightlife during high season yet deserted in winter, Gibraltar with its 30,000 population is a living town throughout the year. English is the common language and with its tax free status, is ideal for shopping and ordering those spare parts and accessories V.A.T free, not to mention the low cost of fuel.
Ragged Staff Wharf, as the quayside at Queensway Quay Marina is called, is probably the oldest wharf in Gibraltar. Of Spanish origin, Ragged Staff Wharf was developed by the British in 1736 under the supervision of First Lord of the Admirality Sir Charles Wager, with the purpose of providing 'better victualling of men-at-war'. Ragegd Staff Wharf also became the traditional landing place for newly-arriving Govenors of Gibraltar at the steps known as Govenor's Landing - which are still in use as part of the Marina.

Ocean Village and Marina Bay
The neighbouring marinas of Ocean Village and Marina Bay have well over
250 plus berths between them and are always popular in peak season.
Services offered to yachts here include free wifi, satellite television,
newly renovated shower and toilet facilities, and CCTV protection for all.
Long-established chandlers provide boatyard services and specialist marine
supplies and there are several sailing schools close by, including at
Allabroad Sailing Academy, which provides STCW 95 training.
Ocean Village and Marina Bay are part of a wider residential and leisure
complex; whether it's a casino, a cocktail or champagne that's required,
onshore entertainment covers it all, along with a wide range of international restaurants.
The five-star superyacht hotel, Sunborn Gibraltar, has been berthed in
Ocean Village since 2014 and provides a dramatic focal point for the marina.
Ocean Village Marina is continuing to improve its facilities and meeting demand from luxury cruisers and superyachts and has now drawn up plans for a further development, to provide ten superyacht berths with secure access, executive crew lounges,
sophisticated data networks, spa facilities and storage, workshop and
laundry services. This is part of a project that includes 101 short stay and rental
apartments for visitors to the marina.

Live music every evening at the Lord Nelson in Casemates Square. Meals including our favourites such as British fish & chips and fresh mussels served day & night on their terrace and inside.
Our establishment was named "Lord Nelson" to commemorate England's most famous Admiral - one of the best-known military figures associated with the Rock. Gibraltar has strong connections with Nelson and the Battle of Trafalgar - Nelson's body was brought here after the battle (but there is some debate as to whether he actually came ashore before returning to England for the last time).
Our concept was for a Bar Brasserie, from the dictionary: beer salon, restaurant serving beer with food. Our cuisine offers innovative delights, from locally caught fresh fish to prime steak. Our extensive menu is supplemented by daily specials, governed by what is available from the boats and markets, this is not fast food - all our meals are freshly prepared and may take longer to arrive on your table than in some other establishments. The constantly updated wine list features the very best from Europe and the New World winemaking areas. We serve a vast selection of beers to suit any taste, 6 beers on tap served in traditional English pints and halves with a plethora of imported bottled beer, all from local distributors Anglo Hispano.
If you are visiting Gibraltar then we hope the old world atmosphere makes your visit to the Lord Nelson a memorable part of the Gibraltar experience; if you are one of our regular locals then we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your business.
We are very proud of our management team and staff, some of which you will meet on your visit. Good service is no mystery - just employ nice people!
We hope you enjoy your visit - may your ship enjoy fine weather and return to this port before many moons have passed!

Thanks, we found your guide really helpful and have left some reviews for other people to see when they visit. It was our first trip to Gibraltar and this really helped.
We are no experts on the tax laws betwean Spain and Gibraltar, but this does sound very unfair. Maybe look at the Government website where they be able to advise you better. Hope the wedding goes well.
Wehave been completely honest in our reviews and hope future users find them helpful.
Gibraltar is buzzing. What an atmosphere and what a setting. Great experience for the young fighters and those making their debuts. And a solid victory for Dillian will top the night off!
Hi Laurence, Biancas Bar & Restaurant doesn't take bookings or reply to comments on here. Its more of a review section. But if you contact them direct on this link https://www.harbourguides.com/bluepages/view/biancas-bar--restaurant-3909#commentnumber7453 they will sort everything for you.

Coming over as part of a boxing team. do you take table bookings? and if so, what is the limit? ie per table and total numbers. The date will be 28th March.
it’s difficult to guarantee or rule out anything at the moment. Things change every day. Let’s just hope the fight goes ahead and if we can’t attend, then its Sky Box Office or DAZN. Either way its going to be a great night!

With the new government guidelines that were released yeasterday, I think its still not possible to travel to gibraltar from UK unless you have official work etc,
Hi Si Z
Again, we are not qualified to answer. Travel restrictions are changing all the time. The fight is only four or five weeks away, so I think there will have to be some extreme changes before this is possible. But keep positive

There's a tiny take-away place in Parliament Lane called MALAK BAGUETTE which does extraordinarily good-value filled baguettes.They cook the fillings to order (Moroccan chicken, Chicken Tikka, all kinds) and charge just £2.80. There's a few scruffy tables outside or you can take away. One of these will fill you for the day, and they're super-fresh. Its about ten mins walk from Marina Bay, through the arches onto Casemates Sq, cross the square onto Main Street and Parliament Lane is the first on the right. Highly recommended. I often bring a couple back to the boat.
I entirely disagree with the suggestion in the notes that Gibraltar's main attraction is its duty free status. Yes, it may be for booze and fags, but certainly not for the kind of electronics and techno stuff that you might hope to score a big hit on in the high street. I've been coming to the Rock for 40 years and there's not a single item, whether its cameras, hi-fi, clothes, watches etc that you cant get cheaper in the UK, either in supermarkets or on-line. I dont know why this is, but its a fact. It may be that the traders, mostly Asian-run businesses, pocket the VAT difference and simply dine out of the duty free reputation. So do NOT come to Gib for bargains. Come for the history, the ok priced marinas, the excellent sail training and the reasonably straight-forward bureaucracy.
A very easy informative website to use for us (not so young) internet users.
Thank You
Claire Arcus
I would highly recommend the seawave bar on Catalan bay, the staff are always friendly and will always remember a face, the owners of the bar Marilyn and Byron are great people and will always make sure your visit to the bar is a happy one!!! The food is great, and the locals will always speak to you and make you feel even more welcome, this is our home from home where we have spent many happy evenings. If you visit Gibraltar be sure to visit the seawave and find out for yourselves. You will not be disappointed.
Just opposite the bus station on the inside wall(goes all the way through to the street with a big glass extension)
Persuaded them to make it for me and was absolutely delicious.
Going to see if it is possible to have it put on the menu, watch this space.
Delicious and massive portions.
26th JAN - Thur FEB 5th 2015, so be warned if searching for last minute stay.
Let's just say she has been converted.
Favourite eating places, Case Pepe, and The Landings.
You will not be disappointed.
Could be a trap but who cares, the night is young and I am let off the leash without asking.
Great site, and it was her brother who told us to have a look when we told him we were passing through.
Cheers.
See for yourself next time you are wandering around the Marina.
Landings is a little bit out of main area, but would say give it a go if only staying one night.
Maybe small but full of goodies all being the latest.
Good breakfast and cosy bar also.
Worth looking at but you can get bus also takes about 10 minutes and are quite frequent.
They flew out of my shirt pocket ahead of me as I jumped onto the boat.
They flew out of my shirt pocket ahead of me as I jumped onto the boat.
Casa Pepe in the Marina nearest Rock Hotel was one of the best places we ate at, have a look for it.
Arrived late in Gib and found Cannon Hotel on your site, and saved the day as I was having a problem finding anywhere to stay, nice and handy for everything and great prices.
Cheers
Try asking the same question on our chat forum. You are more likely to get a response to this sort of enquiry.
Good luck

Look no further.
Excellent.
Lived here 3 years.
So if you are passing Gib and are thinking to fuel up and head off as we did, why not hang around for a few days? We did and loved it.
Well done with the harbour guides guys! Great service for us yachty's
Would like to say a big big thank-you to Marine Maintenance for sorting out our engine probs.
Well done lads!
In reply to the "Wannabe Sailor Family" we are currently in Gibraltar and will have a reputable charter and sailing school featured here in the next few days.
Hope you and your family really enjoy your sailing and that it does indeed become an important part of your lives.
having visited Gibraltar this summer for our annual holiday, we are considering coming again next year. However we are very interested in completing a sailing course or courses as, i am considering buying a yacht that we can use as a family holiday base in the near future and would like all the family to be fairly competent.
There are many "Sailing Schools" in Gibraltar but have noticed that you do not promote any of them on your website..Is this due to the fact they dont advertise with you or is it that you do not endorse any of them?
We dont want to make the wrong decision on what could become a very important part of our lives as a family.
Would appreciate your feedback.
Thanks
bye bye
OK rant over..other than that i have loved using this guide and will tell all!!
#2 - Marty: Con Dias (I have never heard of it)
#6 - Adam king: The Continental (I think had a fire and closed if it was the one on Eastern Beach) caheck out www.gibyellow.gi for alternatives
#11 - owoflow: Allabroad Sailing Academy http://www.sailing.gi/ ask for John I think it is
I can also recommend http://www.worldmarineservice.com in Queensway Quay for shipping/large yacht related matters
We are due in Gibraltar sometime in October to update.One of the categories of businesses we will be including will be Sailing schools and Charter companies, so you will be able to do the courses with these.
Good luck!!
