Mayor of O Grove insists on regulating motorhomes before summer

Mayor José Cacabelos Rico urged residents and political groups to submit proposals for a municipal ordinance regulating the parking of motorhomes, camper vans, and caravans, aiming for enactment before next summer. He stated that the municipality lacks public parking spaces and that acquiring land in the city center or near beaches is difficult due to high costs and failed negotiations with owners. The goal is to prevent uncontrolled parking, especially in beach and dune areas, which have seen massive influxes in recent years.

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.

The municipality of Oseja de Sajambre, on the Leonese side of the Picos de Europa National Park, has given initial approval to a project for a motorhome parking area, budgeted at 324,000 euros. The move responds to the growing popularity of motorhome and camper tourism in Spanish natural areas. The municipality is one of the main gateways to the park from León province and receives thousands of visitors each year.
