A gas sensor, that represses a manufacturing cost, obtains high responsiveness and can effectively reduce adhesion of water to a sensor element and intrusion of water into the sensor element, is provided. In the gas sensor that has the sensor element mainly containing a solid electrolyte with oxygen ion conductivity and a protective cover arranged to surround the sensor element and detects a predetermined gas component in a measurement gas, the protective cover includes an inner protective cover that is formed into a bottomed cylindrical shape, has a plurality of inner gas distributing holes formed in two rows on its side surface in a longitudinal direction of the sensor element and surrounds one front end of the sensor element, and an outer protective cover that is formed into a bottomed cylindrical shape, has a plurality of outer gas distributing holes on its side surface and surrounds the inner protective cover.
