Cefalu - the city of the Normans. Cefalu is a Sicilian town famous for its medieval monuments and picturesque location. It is often called the "City of Normans". Considered by many to be the most beautiful bathing resort on the island. In Cefalu, white houses in a typical Italian style, winding, narrow streets decorated with flowers are as if squeezed between the Tyrrhenian Sea and high, yellow-brown mountains. The city is a good starting point for optional excursions because it is located between two large coastal cities - Palermo and Messina. Before entering the town, there are two large campsites.

Amateurs of paragliding are probably already choosing a place for aerial madness. If they are considering resorts without the crowds and noise, they should consider Ölüdeniz, a town on the Turkish Riviera. There are resorts in Turkey where you can lie on the beach during the day, and go crazy at night in one of the dozens of pubs. Ölüdeniznie is such a place. Despite the constantly growing popularity, the town still manages to remain relatively intimate. Relative, because the biggest attraction of the resort, the lagoon, is separated from the mainland by a sandy strip that has transformed over time into a large parking lot. On the other hand, the local buildings, including hotels, are low and nicely integrated into the surrounding greenery. Apart from that, there is not a single route here, which makes it safe.

Semi-integrated motorhome? It is almost always built on a Fiat Ducato chassis. Van-based motorhome? If not a Ducato, then probably a Volkswagen T5. The British Wellhouse proposes something else - motorhomes based on Ford and Hyundai designs. Wellhouse is not following the path of least resistance. This is evidenced by the fact that he decided to build motorhomes on the basis of the Hyundai i800 and the Ford Tourneo . I admit that I do not know any other company that would use these cars for camping (not counting those that declare that they will rebuild a vehicle of any brand).

Hyundai and Ford as motorhomes

In northern Croatia, walking along the beach requires wearing good shoes. The descents to the sea are often sharp and steep, but the lack of loose sand is fully compensated by the beauty of the jagged coast. The Croatian coastline is exceptionally varied, and the water washing the beaches is warm and clear. The holiday of your life can be not so much a stay in one of the tourist pearls of this beautiful country, but a leisurely walk along the coastline. There is something intriguing behind every corner and the people are warm and friendly.

The British brand IH Motorhomes can surprise. But this time the surprise is much greater than in the case of the presentation of bright green cars with a bright yellow interior. The IN N-Class 630 SL is probably the first van with a retractable sidewall. At the front and rear, this motorhome hardly differs from a regular Fiat Ducato. However, when looking at the vehicle from the side, we have to start figuring out what it is all about. On the one hand, we find doors typical of caravans rather than vans. On the other hand, in the part behind the driver and passenger compartment, we will not see ordinary doors or sliding doors. Yet a careful observer will notice two vertical lines suggesting sheet metal cuts.

In Romania, at the foot of the Carpathians, there is a city that greets visitors with large white letters. It is Brasov, which, in the image of Hollywood, placed its name on a green hill. One of the most beautiful cities in Transylvania - Brasov lies at the foot of the menacing mountains. There is a street claiming to be the narrowest in Europe, i.e. Strada Sforii (Sznurowa Street), not exceeding 132 cm wide. These are not all the "best" that are associated with the city. In Brasov's Black Church, one of the main attractions of the region, you can admire the largest organ in Transylvania. They consist of 4,000 pipes. The temple also has the heaviest bell in Romania, weighing almost 6.3 tons.

Brasov in Romania - almost like Hollywood

What takes the most space in a motorhome? Probably armchairs! What if their number was limited to two? This is what the designers of the Dexter Go! 600. Most motorhomes are planned for two parents and two children. Subsequently, further versions are prepared, with more or less passengers in mind. Karmann reversed that approach. He prepared a camping car based on a van, intended from the beginning as a car for two. In this motorhome, we will not find a couch or a bench added to the table. Instead, there is a fold-out table top attached to the seats in the driver's and passenger's cabin. To get a bite, simply turn the seats 180 degrees.

There is a place where gigantic rocks covered with moss emerge from above the foamed water surface. Their juicy green harmonizes wonderfully with the turquoise water. This is the Cliffs of Moher, the pearl of the Irish coast. The Cliffs of Moher (Cliffs of Moher) is one of Ireland's greatest tourist attractions. Made of sandstone and limestone, they stretch for about 8 kilometers and reach a height of 214 meters at the highest point. It was created by the power of nature - rainwater was gradually washing away the limestones, carving fancy forms in the rock. They are part of the Burren and are found in the West of Ireland, County Clare.

The Bailey Retreat caravan was created for those users who spend a lot of time in the caravan without moving too often. So if you would like to spend your summer at one campground and winter elsewhere, Retrat may be useful for you. Currently, manufacturers of camping vehicles (but also other products) focus mainly on mobility. More and more often they design light, modular and comfortable solutions with an active lifestyle. Meanwhile, Bailey and his largest trailer model seem to follow the current trends.

One of the most important Spanish ports in the Mediterranean Sea lies at the foot of a rocky mountain on which stands an ancient fortress. This is Alicante, a city whose Arabic name means "source of light". The real tourist pearl of the Costa Blanca coast is Alicante, a resort popular among Poles visiting the Spanish Levant. The nearby beaches tempt lovers of tan and blissful lounging on the sand. Among them is Juan de Alicante, considered the favorite beach of the inhabitants of Madrid. It can be easily reached by the city tram FGV.

Tires in caravans and motorhomes need to be especially taken care of. This is due to the fact that they are usually subjected to very high loads. But even if the RV is left unused, it also damages the tires. If you haven't used your camper or caravan during the winter, check the tires carefully before your first trip in the season. If they have been exposed to frost (or the sun) for a long time, they may have bulges or cracks . To protect the tires from the harmful effects of weather conditions, it is best to cover them during longer stops . In the case of trailers, it is a good idea to remove the wheels when not in use.

On the other side of the Mediterranean Sea is a huge continent, still alien and exotic to most Europeans. Its largest country is Algeria, with hectares of deserts and semi-deserts. Algeria is a country that has a lot to offer tourists, although at the same time "difficult", both due to the political situation and the fact that it is a relatively conservative country in terms of religion. Foreigners must comply with the rules in force therein, incl. women are not allowed to enter some temples, they are also not allowed to appear in public in inappropriate clothing (e.g. bathing suit, bare knees and shoulders, etc.).
