Hello! is it ok to arrive at Malaga airport at the moment as a tourist or do we need a letter to say we are visiting friends?
Many thanks

You will need to have a PCR test and show the certificate to the airline that you are flying with. No need to show on arrival. Have a lovely time.

Many thanks Thank you very much for this! I wonder if we are still allowed to enter now with the new restrictions on U.K. passport holders ? We are living in Germany and will be flying to Malaga from there. Thank you for your help

UK government current guidance but if you fly from Germany it may be different 

There is an alternative to the PCR test called the TSM antigen test

From my experiance some airlines (Ryanair) will refuse boarding if you do not have the negative test certificate with you -that happened bournemouth to malaga in dec 2020
