City center Mon–Sat 09:00–20:00 €1.10 per hour (first 4h), then €2.00/h; max €15/day
Surrounding “ring” areas Mon–Sat 09:00–20:00 €0.35 per hour (first 8h), then €2.50/h; max €10/day

Free and time-limited options (Sunday/holidays, Westerzeedijk, and blue zone)

If you’re visiting on lower-pressure days, you may have easier options:

  • Sundays & public holidays: parking is free on many locations in Harlingen, with an exception for the Waddenpromenade garage.
  • Westerzeedijk: free daytime parking is available, but there is a parking ban from 00:00 to 08:00.
  • Blue zone (parking disc): Harlingen has blue-zone areas where you may park up to 4 hours with a parking disc. These are clearly marked—use the signs to check whether you’re in a disc zone.

For a hospital visit, the practical approach is to park where the rules are simplest: if available, start with the MCL/Achlumerdijk 2 spaces; otherwise, use the marked zones you can immediately identify.
