Greek authorities have begun issuing fines for placing tents, campervans, and caravans on beaches and other restricted areas. Fines range from €300 to €3,000. Wild camping is banned outside licensed campsites, including overnight parking on public lots. Coast guard and police are conducting inspections.
Skydream has introduced a caravan approximately 8 meters long, equipped with two 85 kWh lithium batteries and rooftop solar panels. The model is in pre-production; price and launch date are yet to be announced. It includes driver assistance for hill starts, hitching, and parking, plus automatic leveling. The interior features a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, dining area, and a living room with a 60-inch screen.
