Covid tests for travel to uk
We want to travel to UK early December after there lockdown finishes. Could we get a suitable Covid test in Nerja which would cover us to travel to England. Also is it possible to get a flu jab here thanks

Flu vaccine is widely available in Spain.

There's also a number of ways to get a Covid-19 test, ask your local clinic for the one they recommend.
Be careful relying on the above information. I have a friend who was unable to get the flu medicine from anywhere around our municipality. Al the Pharmacies were out. She did get it from a Clinic. If you are over 55 its free but you need a Spanish Health card for that. Anyone else, who knows the possibilities? Best to check with your own health care provider.

Hi you do not need a Covid test to gain access to the UK but at the moment you will need to self isolate for 14 days on arrivbut there is talk of reducing that to a week if you take a test after you arrive but that is not the case as yet
Best advice consult uk FCO web page
Good luck
