La Azohia Spain

Both are campsites. We like Playa de Mazarron. It’s an ACSI site and has good facilities, including a lovely pool.

La Azohia solution

I've just returned from La Azohia. I wasn't in my MH this time, and whilst I have parked there during the day, I always go to a campsite for the night, I love the place and yes I have wild camped there for the odd night.
The problems there and other spots are caused by inconsiderate human beings, with no thoughts for anyone else.
Those of us who are thoughtful and abide by common decency are being penalised by these others.
So the solution:
If you see someone emptying there toilet waste in a ditch, or leave rubbish behind, photograph them, get evidence and get the registration number of the MH. Then give this evidence either to the 'warden' the council or the Police.
In turn the Spanish government could do one of two things. Fine the offenders heavily, or better still ban them from motor homing anywhere in Spain and possibly France. This can be enforced on their passports when they seek entry into the country, or if checked by the Police. ie they try to get on a ferry, it gets flagged up, turn them around. Police stop them and its flagged up, the van gets taken, simple.

Now some will say this is harsh. No it isn't. These people are damaging the environment, spoiling the pleasures of those who are careful and upsetting local residents, people who live there!!! If these folks want to leave their crap, then they must face the consequences, ban them from doing what they want to do in the country(s) they do it in. This in turn will free areas up for the goods ones and alleviate overcrowding.

The people who won't like this post will no doubt be the ones who do the dirty deeds, so I'm not too upset at upsetting them.

These issues are not just for La Azohia, but La Marina,etc etc.

Why should we allow a minority to spoilt it for the majority, we shouldn't. Abide by common decency or leave.:wave:

“ These people are damaging the environment,”
says the man who drives a Diesel engine 2000 miles to get a bit of sun . I wonder which does the most harm? And what are we going to with the brits that do it in the uk? Hang draw and quarter them. Lol back to the drawing board you go .

Cows Sheep Horses and Goats

I think we should photograph them and send to the local authorities.
Cows also produce a huge amount of methane...Perhaps we should kill them (and then eat them)

BUT seriously there is no excuse for mis-dumping of
1 Black waste
2 Grey waste
3 household (ie motorhome) other waste.

The first 2 drive to a campsite and pay !
No 3 the councils should have a responsible attitude to provide facilities but again pay
You can keep rubbish in a medium quality plastic bin bag no need to get rid of it every day.
With a little bit of thought you can easily reduce the volume of "No 3's"

Ps I know some deal with grey waste in a variety of ways...some of which are OK (IMO)

i take it

I think myself they have done this to keep the locals happy i was down there for 3 months and a large amount of locals are not happy with all the motorhomes that come there, The only place i know to empty and fill with fresh water is a campsite but i am sure someone knows more places. About the signs i will try and find out for you but i think they will have to put some up. what i can,t understand is why do some people do silly things to upset others i had a problem with a nice German man this year,

you click the heels.pj

I read these threads and just sit in amazement !!!
We find plenty of official places to empty and fill many for free or maybe a few euros. Seen the manholes being closed for a few years now.
