Main Street
Duty-free, and the reason a good share of day-trippers actually come.
Gibraltar's pedestrianised high street runs from Casemates Square to Southport Gates, lined with duty-free tobacco, spirits, perfume and electronics alongside British high street names that feel oddly transplanted.
For a large share of the Spanish day-trip market, this is the visit. Prices on alcohol and tobacco are genuinely lower than in Spain or the UK, within allowances.
