Ibiza cracks down on illegal caravans: digital system and fines up to €30,000
Original source: Vivir Ediciones

In Brief

The Consell of Ibiza and five municipalities have launched a digital platform to track offenders. In 2026, 17 fines have been issued, more than in all of 2025. Fines range from €10,001 to €30,000.

The Consell of Ibiza, together with the mayors of five municipalities and local police, has announced coordinated measures against illegal caravan parking on agricultural land. A digital data-sharing system between municipalities has been introduced to prevent offenders from evading fines by moving between towns.

Law 5/2024 explicitly prohibits overnight stays and camping with motor vehicles on agricultural land outside legal campsites. In 2025, 13 reports were filed; in 2026, 17 have already been issued. Fines range from €10,001 to €30,000.

From June 1 to September 30, 2026, entry to the island will be limited to 16,000 vehicles — 4,000 fewer than in 2025. A booking at a legal campsite will be required for entry. The measures target illegal parking in protected areas, on the coast, and in natural parks, as well as the use of caravans by seasonal workers due to the housing crisis.

Tourism withdraws tender for motorhome area in Liérganes

The Cantabrian tourism ministry halted the tender for a 27-space motorhome area in Liérganes due to a missing permit from the Cantabrian Hydrographic Confederation. The municipality expects the process to resume soon. The project, costing around 600,000 euros, sparked controversy: opposition deemed it excessive, while the PP-PRC government defended it as a way to ease pressure on the historic center.

Salinas residents demand ban on caravan parking in urban area

Residents of Salinas are demanding that the Castrillón council ban caravan parking in urban areas, calling the situation unsustainable. The nighttime parking restriction from 00:00 to 08:00, introduced at the start of summer, has not solved the problem: caravans have moved from the grass to the asphalt, occupying parking spaces and obstructing traffic. The residents' association points to deteriorating sanitary conditions and calls for applying the model of Llanes or Laredo. The council cites regional bureaucracy: a plan to rent private plots for 50,000 euros is stalled due to a missing CUOTA report, and the San Juan de Nieva parking project has been deemed unviable.
