New camper registrations in South Korea fell 81% after the Kia PV5 arrived. Also: 1,000 illegal campers on Bulgaria's Karadere beach.
Two years on the road with a cat named Zhuzu — and not a single day of wanting to go back. We break down life in a camper van: where to find water, how heating works, what to do about electricity, and where to look for overnight spots. 7 countries, hundreds of places, and an honest account — from the mountain roads of Turkey to the coastline of Montenegro.
Comprehensive review of all RV and camper toilet types: cassette, portable, gravity, vacuum, macerating, dry flush, sealing, incinerating, composting and separating. Comparison of models, consumables, installation and annual costs.
Despite threats of fines from Palma city council since May 13, the number of caravans and campervans in the Ciudad Jardín neighborhood has not decreased. Local residents report that many of these vehicles are used for short-term rentals: occupants change weekly, and owners regularly clean the interiors. Police pressure remains low, and the issue is exacerbated by the housing crisis and high property prices.
The coincidence of the Fallas festival, the Garmin Mountain Festival, and cross-country and paragliding events caused an influx of motorhomes and camper vans in Vall de Boí. The municipality exceptionally set up four additional parking zones, including near the football field where parking is normally banned. Overnight stays with awnings and furniture are only allowed at the Pla de l’Ermita lot (30 spaces); other lots permit only compact parking. The episode highlights the growth of motorhome tourism in Lleida: the number of dedicated motorhome spaces in the province rose from 11 in 2022 to 6,739 in 2023.
Spain's Directorate-General for Traffic (DGT) reminds that the number of passengers in a motorhome is limited by the officially certified seats, not the number of beds. Exceeding this number is a serious offense, carries a fine, and can cause insurance problems in the event of an accident. The key distinction is between 'travel seats' (certified seats with seat belts) and 'sleeping berths'.
Ahead of the total solar eclipse on August 12, demand for motorhome rentals has increased significantly. Enrique Rita, manager of AC LLAR, said that all motorhomes are booked and the reservation level is at 100%. This allows tourists to explore inland areas of the peninsula and comfortably witness the event.
Cordoba firefighters responded this morning to extinguish a motorhome fire at the El Arenal fairground. The alert was received at 8:55 after local police reported the blaze, which produced a column of black smoke visible from several points in the city. No injuries have been reported; the cause is under investigation.
In A Guarda (Pontevedra), the motorhome parking area at the port, designed for six vehicles, is hosting more than twenty this summer, causing neighbor complaints. BNG spokesperson Anxo Baz criticized the location next to a museum in the urban center, as well as insufficient control and confusing signage. He said the facility fails as a park-and-ride, contrary to Mayor Roberto Carrero's promise, and is becoming an uncontrolled camping area.
