"Just a quick question does anyone know how you get a test prior to travelling? Read somewhere that canarian tourist agency is funding the tests ? But cant find any official information " I've emailed the canarian health authority and no reply I hope they get it sorted as soon as possible as we will book a week once it's introduced as we will feel safer mixing when we get there.

"Quick question We've moved our booked 2 wks to 2021 but still have it booked of work so now thinking of a last minute break for a few days as flights seem very cheap atm. this morning I've read on line the government now have a plan B in place and if numbers don't drop they will take us into full lock down by mid to late Nov If there's any truth in this could we still travel to GC under a uk lockdown if we've already booked and paid " I would doubt very much that you could travel on holiday, under a full lockdown, it would be classed as non essential travel. Tricky one, isn't it?. | |||

Well it is with Ryanair | |||

"Me and my partner are in PDL now were is best to go for a good laugh meet new people, not all rude things but that is a bonus hehe ![]() ![]() Ask the guys at Maclennans. I don't think they have been open with Europe being closed for travel. But I think Moonlight may open up when the numbers pick up, if they aren't already open. Yes you go across the bridge and down the stairs. (PS during non covid times there's an awesome Pizza/Hambuger place as you come over the bridge that is open to stupid O'Clock for when you come out with the munchies in the wee hours) Eternity is closed at present. | |||

"Just down from Maclennans is the Gran Canaria Princess Sentido. No naked tanning but many go topless... (and the ladies too). It's adults only. It's also very affordable. Closed for covid. Lots of shops around as well as pharmacy. There's a great steak house across the road. Immediately outside the hotel is a taxi rank (although if you just wait outside a taxi comes by soon enough). It will cost you about €3 from there to Yumbo and circa €8 from there to the Maspalomas Lighthouse. " We used to stay in that area. Have stayed at Princess, the Flamingo when it was there, also jardin del sol. We like that area, everything you need and a nice stroll to the beach ![]() | |||

The one at hotel mainly applies to those that are already here and are perhaps relocating to another hotel. We have friends that are in a hotel in maspalomas but are going to venus on the 12th for 4 days and they will require to get the test. | |||
