Maybe my knowledge is completely obsolete but wasn't Gibraltar under UK control?

British Gibraltar is actually not located at the narrowest section. It is Spain that can say "I can see Morocco from my front porch."

Yeah it is. It's such a narrow pass though that Spain doesn't have to have control of the very tip to make the strait impassable.
