O Salnés to Create New Motorhome and Caravan Areas
Original source: Atlántico

In Brief

The O Salnés association approved a strategic plan for motorhome tourism through 2028, adding new sites in inland municipalities to ease coastal pressure.

The Association of Municipalities of O Salnés has presented a strategic plan for developing motorhome and caravan tourism for 2026–2028. The region has 2,027 spaces, of which only 35 (according to other sources, 25) are public and located solely in Vilagarcía de Arousa and A Illa de Arousa. Demand is 16 times higher than the number of public parking spaces.

The plan includes creating a "corridor of regulated overnight stays" in the inland municipalities of Meaño, Meis and Ribadumia, adding 300 spaces to relieve the coast. About half of these (around 150) are expected to be operational within the current year. A model regulation and a unified information website are also planned.

In Salinas (Asturias), residents complain about overcrowded streets due to caravans occupying spaces for months. In response, a dedicated motorhome area is being built outside the town; the project has cleared bureaucratic hurdles and is expected to open by next summer season.

Cartagena approves El Limonar motorhome eco-area project and sends file to regional government

The local government board of Cartagena has approved the proposal to support the processing of the El Limonar motorhome eco-area in Los Nietos, considering that the necessary requirements are met to continue the exceptional authorization procedure on non-urbanizable land. The project, promoted by Eco Área Caravanas El Limonar SL, includes 229 motorhome pitches on a 68,285 square meter site, with an investment of over 1.8 million euros and 18 direct jobs. During the public information period, nine objections were filed questioning the public interest, potential impact on the Mar Menor, and risk of hidden urbanization; the final decision rests with the regional government, which will request sectoral reports and conduct an environmental impact assessment.

Developer seeks permit for motorhome campsite near Rambla Salada in Albatera

A developer has applied to the regional government for a declaration of community interest (DIC) to build a campsite for motorhomes and camper vans in La Dehesa de Albatera. The 9,339-square-meter plot, on non-developable land, would include 48 pitches, capacity for 144 people, a pool, bar, and green area. The project requires a lengthy administrative process because the land is classified as common non-urbanizable, with the final decision resting with the regional government. The site is in a zone with geomorphological flood risk, which could affect approval.
