Once all procedures are completed, the area will operate 24/7 with a 72-hour limit and overnight stay permitted, initially free of charge. A wastewater dump point and a time-control machine will be installed, with police patrols to prevent abuse. There are 22 spaces for local motorhomes.

Stealth campers: how to disguise a van as a delivery truck and sleep in the city without fines

A trend for stealth campers — vans externally indistinguishable from commercial vehicles — is growing in Europe and the US. These vehicles have no side windows, extra lights, awnings, or vinyl decals, but inside they are equipped with a bed, kitchen, and toilet. In Spain, sleeping inside a properly parked camper is legal as long as no external elements are deployed, but local restrictions in Galicia and the Balearic Islands are tightening. A key camouflage element is an opaque bulkhead behind the front seats that hides the living area.
