Reservation of motorhome spaces in Covas parking lot sparks resident criticism

Residents of the Covas area in Ferrol have criticized the management of the municipal parking lot serving the beaches, arguing that the current model disadvantages locals in favor of other users, particularly motorhomes. They claim that reserving spaces for motorhomes reduces already insufficient parking capacity during summer and call for resident-only zones, as implemented in neighboring municipalities. Insufficient public transport is also criticized, forcing reliance on private vehicles.

Over 100 caravans in Palma parking lot serve as homes for workers and pensioners

In Palma, the Son Hugo parking lot now hosts more than 100 caravans, home to workers, pensioners, and families with children. Residents say they did not choose this lifestyle but were forced by rising housing costs. According to Cadena SER, the price of a standard 80-square-meter apartment increased by 26,000 euros in a year. Residents dispute stereotypes of conflict, stating that lights go out at 10 p.m. and silence prevails. They also argue that 323 new public housing units are insufficient to address the crisis.

Belgian amateur astronomer to chase total eclipse in Spain by motorhome to avoid 9,000-euro-a-night lodging

Roland Boninsegna, an amateur astronomer from Belgium, has left for Spain with his partner in a motorhome to observe the total solar eclipse on August 12, 2026. In Belgium, the eclipse will be partial (about 90%), while in Spain, on the central line, the full phase will be visible. Due to high demand, accommodation prices in Spain have surged from 75 to 9,000 euros per night, so the couple chose a motorhome, which also allows them to move in case of bad weather. They plan to stay in a mountainous area near Oviedo.
