The comarca of the Campo de Gibraltar (literally The Gibraltar Countryside) is one of six traditional and touristic subdivisions of the province of Cádiz, Spain, in the southwestern part of the autonomous community of Andalusia, the southernmost part of continental Western Europe. A Spanish comarca is roughly the equivalent of a county in the USA or Canada, a riding in the United Kingdom, or a Landkreis in Germany, though without any administrative relevance.
