Hello,

Would anyone know where I can book COVID-19 tests for travel to the UK?

I would need these to be carried out near the end of March. My relatives live in Mojacar.

Many thanks,

Stephen

Going slightly off track. A week or two ago someone posted here that they took a €50 lateral flow test at the clinic below the pharmacy on Mojácar playa and we’re heading I think to Santander then the uk. Was there any feedback on how they got on as I think there was some doubt if this test was acceptable

Hello, I believe that lateral flow is ok.

Do you know the name of the clinic below the pharmacy?

I was in there today but don’t know the name. It’s between the bank and currency direct. They open 9 until 12 and tests are done on a first come first serve basis. €50 per test and results in 45 mins. The lady in the pharmacy said this was ok for travel to be uk but I wasn’t sure hence my earlier question. The clip you’ve posted would seem to confirm what she said

This is brilliant, thank you.

I will Google map it now. 😃

Is there any chance you could clock the 'add a map' button to narrow my search.

Again than you!
