Can anybody suggest any locations / clinics close to Duquesa for my wife and I to have lateral flow covid test prior to us returning to the UK on the 10th July. 

Malaga Airport option for that is fully booked for the 10th July according to the online booking system !.

I think you'll find that you can visit Helicopteros Sanitarios by the DIA Supermarket. Costs €65 and takes ten minutes so they told me. Good luck.

 Be careful the test meets stringent UK requirements. Not just any cheap test will do.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) testing before you travel to England - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

I am flying to Spain this morning 27th Sept. if you are double vaccinated you don’t need a fit to fly, Antigen (lateral flow test) going out to Spain on 1st Oct. BUT REMEMBER to do your Spanish located form

When you return on  5th Oct, again you won’t need a fit to fly test to return to the UK ( it changed on the 4th at  0400) but you will  need a 2 day PCR test ready to take on the second day after returning. It’s best to get one prior to travelling to Spain, so it’s waiting for you on your return. Retain the email and code as you will need them for your locator form when you return to the UK

Hope is helps

Craig

Hi we have just returned from Duquesa and had our test in the clinic in Estapona. If you drive just past thr Carrafour on the right (parade if shops) there is a clinic and they do the tests in there  you just walk in and book an appointment.
