Setur-SP published a guide with destinations and support points for motorhome travelers. Brazil's RV tourism market was about 1.5 billion reais in 2023, with roughly 48,000 recreational vehicles on the road.

The São Paulo State Tourism Secretariat (Setur-SP) has released a selection of routes, attractions, and infrastructure for motorhome travelers. The list includes North Coast beaches (Ubatuba, São Sebastião, Guarujá, Cananéia, Ilhabela, Caraguatatuba, Bertioga), inland cities, and locations near rivers and reservoirs. The Brazilian recreational vehicle market is growing 6–11% annually, with a turnover of approximately R$ 1.5 billion in 2023. About 48,000 such vehicles are in circulation nationwide; the IPVA rate in São Paulo is 1.5%.

The municipality of Três Fronteiras in northwestern São Paulo state is becoming a popular destination for motorhome travelers. In March 2025, the local Areia Branca Ecotourism Park hosted a gathering that brought together dozens of recreational vehicles and about 200 travelers from more than 20 Brazilian states. Travelers report a lack of infrastructure: points with water, electricity, and waste disposal are insufficient. The market for adapted vehicles in Brazil is growing due to remote work and interest in long-term travel.
