Gibraltar has an established Eruv covering the majority of the territory, allowing the carrying of permitted items within its boundaries on Shabbat, in accordance with Jewish law.
Residents and visitors are encouraged to familiarise themselves with the Eruv boundaries before Shabbat.

Waterport Terraces
The area around Waterport Terraces should be accessed with care, as the Eruv does not extend to all parts of Waterport.
In particular, the Eruv does not include the waterfront promenade. Care should therefore be taken not to exit the estate from the northern side while carrying.
Sunborn Hotel
The Sunborn Hotel may only be accessed through the main side entrance (hotel reception) while carrying within the Eruv. The rear entrance is not included.
Areas Not Included in the Eruv
- Morrisons Park
- Gibraltar Airport
- Frontier Area
- Camp Bay Area
- All beaches
Important: Eruv boundaries and operational status should be confirmed before Shabbat. Visitors should consult the Eruv map and seek clarification if they are unsure whether a particular location or route is included.
