In Brief

According to DGT, the fleet of motorhomes and campers in Spain has grown significantly over the past decade: from just over 48,000 in 2015 to nearly 137,000 in 2025 (or 2026, according to another source). That represents a 185% increase over ten years.

In the Basque Country, 557 new motorhomes and campers were registered in 2025, making it the fifth autonomous region by this measure, behind Catalonia, Andalusia, Madrid, and the Valencian Community. In 2025, the second-hand market for these vehicles grew by 14.9%.

In the province of Ourense, a new company, Galicia Caravaning, opened and sold 18 motorhomes in two months. Prices for new motorhomes start at 40,000 euros, while used ones can be cheaper.

Tourism withdraws tender for motorhome area in Liérganes

The Cantabrian tourism ministry halted the tender for a 27-space motorhome area in Liérganes due to a missing permit from the Cantabrian Hydrographic Confederation. The municipality expects the process to resume soon. The project, costing around 600,000 euros, sparked controversy: opposition deemed it excessive, while the PP-PRC government defended it as a way to ease pressure on the historic center.

Salinas residents demand ban on caravan parking in urban area

Residents of Salinas are demanding that the Castrillón council ban caravan parking in urban areas, calling the situation unsustainable. The nighttime parking restriction from 00:00 to 08:00, introduced at the start of summer, has not solved the problem: caravans have moved from the grass to the asphalt, occupying parking spaces and obstructing traffic. The residents' association points to deteriorating sanitary conditions and calls for applying the model of Llanes or Laredo. The council cites regional bureaucracy: a plan to rent private plots for 50,000 euros is stalled due to a missing CUOTA report, and the San Juan de Nieva parking project has been deemed unviable.
