Eastern Beach Verified listing

Eastern Beach is Gibraltar’s longest stretch of sandy shore and its closest beach to the town centre. It features a gentle slope into the sea, ideal for kids wading and paddling safely. During summer months, lifeguards are on duty, giving parents extra peace of mind for a carefree family day by the water.

The beach is well-equipped with family-friendly amenities including public restrooms, changing rooms, and showers, making outings comfortable and convenient. A dedicated kids’ playground is located right by the sand, perfect for when little ones need a break from the water. Plus, there are nearby beach bars and restaurants where parents can grab refreshments while keeping an eye on the children.

One of Eastern Beach’s unique perks is that it enjoys sunshine throughout the day—from sunrise to sunset—unlike many other beaches that fall into shadow behind the Rock. Families can also catch views of the plane runway nearby, offering an exciting backdrop as planes fly low overhead. With easy access via car or bus, plenty of parking, and year-round sunshine, it’s an ideal, hassle-free beach spot for children and adults alike.
