Fuerteventura plans to limit entry of motorhomes from outside
Original source: motorpasion.com

Lola García, president of the Cabildo of Fuerteventura, said the island needs to restrict the entry of motorhomes and camper vans from outside. The administration is considering an annual quota or seasonal limits, especially in summer, and a prior authorization system with entry and exit dates. The reason is limited carrying capacity and pressure on natural areas. The Campers Association of Fuerteventura supports regulation but demands more designated areas, as the island is the only one in the archipelago without a camping zone. A new Canary Islands decree, pending approval, will ban free camping but allow legal parking and overnight stays under certain conditions.

Researchers from the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria have published a study proposing parking limits for motorhomes on 24 beaches on the northern coast of Fuerteventura (between El Cotillo and Corralejo). The physical capacity of the beaches was estimated at 7,761 people, but after accounting for wind, rain, bird sensitivity, and lack of services, the effective capacity drops to 557 users. Based on this, the study recommends 159 parking spaces for the entire analyzed coastline to prevent unregulated parking and environmental damage.

The People's Party of Lanzarote will present a draft ordinance to the island's municipalities to regulate parking and overnight stays of motorhomes, caravans, and campervans. The aim is to organize parking, limit wild camping, and establish equipped areas with basic services (water, grey water disposal, waste management). The initiative responds to the growth of this type of tourism since the pandemic and the lack of uniform regulation among municipalities, which has caused pressure on various points of the island. The proposal is part of a regional plan to approve regulations for campsites and motorhome areas.

Spanish manufacturer Ciclope has unveiled the Mencia 420 and 420e campervans based on the Ford Transit, replacing the Maxus Deliver 9 chassis. Prices in Spain start at 64,495 euros for the Mencia 420 and 72,760 euros for the 420e, excluding VAT, delivery and registration. Both are six-metre campervans with gas-free heating, induction cooking and a 150 Ah lithium battery; the 420e features a pop-top roof and four berths.

The prosecutor's office in Santa Cruz de Tenerife has requested a three-year prison sentence for a man accused of misappropriating €53,000 in a motorhome sale. Buyers paid €53,000 as a partial deposit for a vehicle priced at €86,000 but never received the motorhome or a refund despite repeated demands. Although the seller's son is the official partner and manager, the father acted as the authorized agent and controlled the company, leading prosecutors to charge him with taking the money.

A motorhome based on the Lada Granta, previously unknown to the European market, appeared in Spain and attracted attention from specialized media. However, buyers face a shortage of spare parts and difficulties with registration due to the engine not meeting Euro emission standards. The price starts at 13,000 euros, and the interior includes a double bed, kitchen, and shower. Experts note that the case is more an exception than the start of a mass trend, due to the lack of dealer support and strict safety requirements.
