I was not sure how to have a rant published so forgive this medium to contact you if it is wrong.

Good Afternoon,

My moan is the amount of vans and camper vans from Cotobro to Almuñécar.

We live in Cotobro and many times the small parking area near Cotobro beach is full of camper vans with nowhere for locals and tourists to park and slowly turning into a van-life, refugee camp.

I shudder to think what life would be like living in one of the houses overlooking the beach with a small armada of foreign, camper vans just beyond your gate and no public facilities (I will leave that thought with you).

They also seem to be migrating just past the Altea-rooms, hotel, parked length ways so not interfering with the road but just spaced enough so nobody can park a car between.

Can I add I am not moaning for the sake of it but surely there must be a time limit on being permanent. I know at least one that has been there over a month.

Do you really think they are contributing to the local economy, unless you count the Coviran that is?

So Mr Almuñécar Mayor, there must be an opportunity here; can we not start charging for overnight stays and longer or even moving them on after 24 hours?

We all pay taxes to live here, so in my mind if your in the same place for a month you are hardly travelling around this beautiful country and therefore open for taxes like all of us or at least paying for the privilege of being stationary in your wheeled conveyance.

Kind Regards
Roberto
