Spain’s new tourism plan will let Brits holiday without restrictions in a matter of months

Spain has revealed when it will be reopening to British holidaymakers with restriction-free travel. 

In a bid to boost tourism and welcome tourists back to Spain the country has launched a campaign that should reassure travellers it’s safe to visit. 

Currently, Spain remains off the UK travel corridor list meaning arrivals from the country will have to self-isolate on entry to Britain (excluding the Canary Islands).

Visitors must present a negative Covid-19 test no more than 72 hours on arrival to enter the country.

The latest €2 million campaign hopes to welcome visitors without restrictions by the end of March, reports the MEN.

There will be a daily updated ‘Travel Safe’ section on the spain.info website which will have measures in individual regions including, for example, restaurant capacities. 

The Turespaña strategy will continue while coronavirus restrictions remain, already welcome in popular destinations including Menorca and Ibiza. 

The Balearic Islands are expected to be the first to welcome restriction-free travel. The Balearic tourism minister, Iago Negueruela, told local media: “First of all, however, there is the task of positioning, selling and explaining to the world that the islands are a safe destination.”
