United Kingdom - Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution

Gibraltar, a British Overseas Territory, is a narrow peninsula located at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula, bordering Spain. Its most prominent feature is the Rock of Gibraltar, a monolithic limestone promontory rising 426 meters above sea level. The eastern side of the Rock is characterized by steep cliffs that descend into the Mediterranean Sea, while the western side slopes more gently, forming a narrow coastal strip where the majority of the population resides. The Strait of Gibraltar, a narrow waterway separating Europe from Africa, lies to the south, connecting the Mediterranean Sea with the Atlantic Ocean.
