Authorities do not allow motorhomes to park near the western breakwater of the Vistula Spit canal. The area is part of a technical road and port infrastructure where construction and camping are prohibited. The Sztutowo commune proposed hotels and a marina there but was rejected. Unofficially, the restrictions are linked to the canal's defence functions.

September 21 marks 60 days since the publication in Dziennik Ustaw of a law exempting passenger cars towing caravans with a gross combination weight over 3.5 tonnes from tolls on national roads. The new issue of Polski Caravaning includes an article on anti-corrosion protection for motorhomes and tests of the Dacia Duster Hybrid-G 150 4x4 and Mercedes Marco Polo.
