The third annual Van Experience has started on La Palma, with a convoy of 66% motorhomes and 34% camper vans traveling through six municipalities from August 25 to 30. The route includes stops in Los Cancajos, Santa Cruz de La Palma, Puntallana, San Andrés y Sauces, and Barlovento, with overnight stays at organized sites and visits to natural attractions. Supported by the Canary Islands government, the festival pairs concerts (tickets 25 euros) with local economy: municipalities provide meals, and the Breña Baja Business Association contributed 800 euros in discount vouchers.

The number of caravans and motorhomes used as residences in Palma de Mallorca is increasing amid the housing crisis. Residents of Platja de Palma and Ciutat Jardí complain about parking shortages, litter, noise, and coexistence issues. According to a mid-2025 census, there are 156 such vehicles in the city, but locals estimate 60-80 in Ciutat Jardí alone. Neighborhood associations demand that the city council create designated, serviced parking areas.

Jesus, a Spaniard living in a six-meter motorhome, told Spanish radio Cadena Cope that his monthly expenses are 300–500 euros, covering food and fuel. He sold his apartment and claims that living in a traditional home would cost him twice as much. According to German broadcaster Tagesschau, a new motorhome costs 60,000–80,000 euros, and prices have been falling since 2024. Jesus also launched the project "Viaja en tribu" to promote motorhome living.

The uncontrolled growth of caravans and campers on Fuerteventura is causing tensions and environmental damage. A study by the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, published in the Journal of Outdoor Recreation and Tourism, analyzed 24 natural beaches on the north coast and found a loss of endemic flora and fauna. Residents report that beaches are overcrowded with vehicles, especially in summer and Easter. The situation mirrors that of the Balearic Islands, where Law 5/2024 on Ibiza has reduced non-resident camper and caravan entries by 75.8% in May-June 2026 compared to the same period in 2024.
