Canaries entry requirements

Hi, I'm getting myself confused if I need a pre departure covid test prior to going to Canaries on 5th Feb. My initial reading was that as long as fully vaccinated then no negative test required to go. But she who must be obeyed says this is wrong.

Any experts keep me right?

Thanks all

    Entry to the Canaries will be no different to the general Spain entry requirements which can be found here

    Its pointless looking now anyway as rules constantly change, look again in a few weeks.

    Personally I would be more bothered with having to wear a mask walking down the street, the rules are absolutely bonkers.

    Thanks, I had already seen that link and my understanding, as things stand, I complete a Health Control Form and as I am fully vaccinated I am good to go?

    It was reading the 'exemptions' section that confused me as it refers to testing.

    There are very few masks in evidence in Tenerife , the majority of restaurant staff are wearing them, probably half of the tourists wear them in shops but virtually no one is wearing them in the street.
