Tourist couple parks motorhome on Volos waterfront

A foreign couple traveling in a motorhome has been staying for several days at Anavros, one of the busiest spots in Volos. They parked their motorhome in the area, swam in the Pagasetic Gulf, and used local shower facilities. Residents and beachgoers noticed the unusual choice of accommodation within the city.

Fanari, Rhodope: Motorhomes at “Metaxas Columns” – Traffic Code, Police and Camper Stop

A gathering of motorhomes at the coastal site “Metaxas Columns” near Fanari in Rhodope has sparked complaints from residents and bathers about prolonged stays, beach occupation, and use of shared showers with detergents. Police clarifications state that simple parking and overnight stays inside the vehicle without external equipment are legal, while violations involve setting up awnings, furniture, or connecting to external utilities. The legality of the stay depends on the zoning of the dirt strip: if it falls within the beach zone, parking is prohibited. The lack of organized camper stops with electricity, water, and waste disposal is also highlighted.

Illegal campsite with gas cylinders and campfires found in forest in Seli, Imathia

An illegal campsite was set up in early July in the forest near the village of Seli in Imathia, where campers used gas cylinders for cooking and lit fires. According to the president of the Seli community, Giorgos Farsarotos, there were over 50 tents and makeshift structures, with more than 300 people, and no sanitary facilities, running water, or lighting. Most campers left after warnings from the forestry service and the municipality of Naousa, but the president calls for the area to be cleaned and measures taken to prevent a recurrence.

Greece misses out on camping and motorhome market

In 2025, overnight stays at campsites and motorhome pitches in the EU reached 413 million, up 28.5% from 2015, compared to 23.4% growth for hotels. Greece, despite its natural potential, underuses this segment: Law 5170/2025, while expanding opportunities for glamping, simultaneously imposes bans on motorhome parking and tent pitching in certain public areas with a fine of 300 euros, creating a lack of legal infrastructure.
