I know Spain keeps changing the entry requirements, usually after the damage to bookings has been done. My current understanding is that there is no requirement for children from Schengen countries to be vaccinated now to enter Spain. However, this does not apply to the UK, and a vaccine cert or covid test prior to arrival is required.

Is this still the case? If so it looks like I will be canceling our visit in Aug as my grandchildren will not be being vaccinated.

Anyone travelling from the UK aged 12 and over can get into Spain with a negative covid test, they do not have to be vaccinated (as per the info in the UK Gov link that Cheryl provided).

 I've seen pre-travel covid tests advertised for as little as £12. 

WIth luck by August the rules may have been relaxed and a test will not be required.

Aitch.
