Fines for breaching environmental regulations can exceed 200 euros.
The Andalusian government and Níjar municipality have evicted caravans parked in the Cabo de Gata Natural Park and closed parking areas at Isleta del Moro and El Playazo. The action took place on March 2, 2026, due to saturation of vehicles in specially protected areas of the park. Authorities insist such vehicles must only be parked in designated areas.

Authorities have temporarily closed motorhome parking areas on the beaches of El Playazo and La Isleta del Moro in the Cabo de Gata–Níjar Natural Park. The action was carried out jointly by environmental agents and local police to protect fragile coastal ecosystems from damage caused by uncontrolled vehicle parking.
David and Lara, both 22, from Spain, plan to move into a used motorhome, as detailed on their TikTok account @vancongatas. Their estimated monthly costs: fuel €100–400, insurance €60–120, groceries €200–350, campsites €0–200, maintenance and repairs €100–200. Total €600–1,200, less than renting an apartment. They also aim to save nearly €1,000 monthly, investing 30% in stocks.
Royal Decree 518/2026, effective October 1, amends the General Traffic Regulations and introduces Article 92.4, which explicitly distinguishes parking from camping. A vehicle is considered parked if it does not extend beyond its perimeter, rests only on its tires, and does not discharge any fluids. This limits municipalities' ability to fine based solely on vehicle type, while regional tourism laws and the Coastal Law remain in force.
Spanish couple Juanma and Tony have lived in a 5 m² motorhome for nearly four years, spending about 100 euros per week. They bought the vehicle for 8,000 euros and invested 3,000 euros in repairs. The motorhome features a fold-down bed, a 21-liter dry toilet, a 200 Ah lithium battery, and a 400 W solar panel. For cooking, they use gas, consuming two butane bottles per year. The couple says this lifestyle has reduced stress and improved their health.
In Spain, extreme heat and drought have increased the risk of wildfires, requiring camper and motorhome travelers to take extra precautions. CamperDays experts advise checking fire risk levels before setting out, avoiding campfires and barbecues, properly disposing of waste, and emptying wastewater only at designated facilities. Parking only in authorized areas and optimizing energy use are also recommended.
In Spain, the number of camper vans is increasing significantly, driven by their versatility for both leisure and commercial use. This growth is reflected in the rising vehicle fleet, particularly in cities like A Coruña, and the massive presence of campers at events such as the recent solar eclipse in Soria. Nomade Nation, a Spanish camper van manufacturer, has raised €1.8 million to expand across Europe, highlighting the growing demand for these vehicles.
On the Spanish used market, the Dacia Dokker remains a popular base for campers. Prices for used vehicles without conversion range from €6,500 to €12,500, while ready-made campers cost €11,500–€18,000. Professional camper conversion starts at €9,750 (excluding the vehicle), and a removable kit costs €1,450–€2,300. Alternatives include a new Dacia Jogger with a bed (from about €20,900) or used compact vans (Citroën Berlingo, Peugeot Rifter, Renault Kangoo).
