 Catalan Bay
A great Gibraltar Beach is the Catalan Bay, a rocky cove with a quiet beach, which was first settled by Genoese fishermen in the 18th century. A former fishing village, Catalan Bay has always offered an ideal vantage point and was considered a haven for Spaniards fleeing from Napoleon’s invasion of Spain in the 19th century. Today, it is a thriving beach resort.

 
Camp Bay and Little Bay

Two Gibraltar Beaches are unusual bays facing the Atlantic which have been fully developed as beach resorts and now include a series of interconnecting terraces providing easy access to the sea. At Camp Bay a small swimming pool has been set-aside for younger children, together with a summer cafe and changing room facilities.
