Ibiza evicts 200 people living in campers and closes the door to motorhomes

Ibiza has begun evicting about 200 people from illegal settlements in Sa Joveria and Can Misses. Most are service workers who cannot afford rent (from €1,000 for a room) on salaries up to €1,800. Authorities enforce Law 5/2024, requiring non-residents to have a campsite booking to enter, and the Rural Land Law, enabling summary evictions. Drones are used to detect habitation in forests, and in urban areas the 24-hour rule applies: any sign of living in a vehicle leads to fines.
