Wild camping has been banned there for many years, certainly since 2012.This new law, from January25, bans parking ….parking, not camping….on beaches , by forests, municipal parking lots. Even on private property, only one van is allowed, apart from a designated campsite. I quote..
The strict restrictions for campers became public by chance, when a local police team recently fined with 300 euros each camper owner who had parked and was enjoying fair weather, sun and the sea, at a beach of Achaia, in Peloponnese.
The incident revealed that there is
law 5170/2025, voted on January 16 and in force since January 20, 2025, and its specifically article 27 that prohibits:
“
The installation of tents and the parking of trailers, semi-trailers and motorhomes (campers) in archaeological sites, seashores, beaches, edges of public forests and in general public areas, as well as the free hosting of more than one caravan by private individuals, without prejudice to article 34 of the Road Traffic Code (law 2696/1999, A’ 57).
