Original source: bnrnews.bg

Authorities in Bulgaria inspected Karadere beach near Byala in Varna region and found nearly 1,000 motorhomes, campers and tents. Owners must remove their vehicles and tents by August 7, or face fines between 250 and 1,500 euros. The mayor of Byala issued a ban in April on setting up tents and motorhomes in the area, yet the 5-kilometer stretch of beach remains covered with them. The area includes dunes where placing structures is strictly prohibited, as is trampling or damaging plants.

North Yorkshire Council reviews overnight campervan ban after resident complaints

North Yorkshire Council is reassessing an experimental overnight parking ban for motorhomes on its coast after it displaced vehicles to residential streets. The ban, implemented last November in Scarborough, Whitby, and Cayton, led to over 2,000 complaints about issues like grey water discharge and noise. Councilors confirm the review will consider options, including reinstating controlled overnight parking with proper enforcement.
