Le Touquet Parking

Le Touquet Parking

Parking in Le Touquet is not normally a problem with a number of options available.
There are large car parks down by the beach that span the entire length of the promenade. Within the town if you want to just stop, pick up or drop there are a few monitored bays close to the main shops. These bays are free for one hour. They have a bollard with a countdown display that starts ticking as soon as you drive up. In theory they phone home to alert the police when the hour is up.

There is plenty of other on street parking within Le Touquet where the price varies depending on which zone you park in. As a general rule in the central area you will pay €2 per hour and in the outer zone the cost is €1. Payment is easy with the ticket machines at sensible intervals accepting Cash or Credit Cards.

Parking Restrictions

Green Zone

In the Green Zone payment is required for weekends, public holidays and the entire months of July and August. Throughout the rest of the year Green Zone parking is Free. Charges are due between 09:00 and 19:00 hours. Lunchtime parking between 12:30 and 14:30 hours is free at anytime.  The maximum you pay is for 8 hours in any day.

Red Zone

In the Red Zone payment is required at all times of the year. Charges are due between 09:00 and 19:00 hours. Lunchtime parking between 12:30 and 14:30 hours is free at anytime.

Parking Fines

Parking fines  approximately equate to the cost of a full days ticket. In my experience the cost doesn’t seem prohibitive however the time and effort required to actually pay any fine is expensive. 

Parking Tips

There is free parking directly in front of the Aqualud  during office hours between 09:00 and 14:30 hours.
If you park outside of the Green Zone on street parking is free. Le Touquet centre is relatively small so it is not that far to walk 

Property Parking

Most of our rental  properties have allocated or on site free parking. Our larger villas have plenty of space for a number of cars. Please check the details for each holiday rental property when making a reservation.

  1. Hello,

    I’m afraid I am not in the business of booking a Le Touquet holiday at the moment. TBH, I am just fishing for some help.

    On Thursday 7th September (a market day) we will be travelling from a campsite near Rouen – driving to the Eurotunnel Terminal at Calais – and will visit Le Touquet en-route.

    We have visited Le Touquet before – and – are very keen go recreate a very enjoyable visit we had with family members that are no longer with us.

    Our only problem is…….

    where to park?

    We will be towing a camping trailer behind our car.

    Can you suggest how we would be the best parking strategy for us to use on a Market day? (we plan to arrive at 11am and leave at 3pm).

    Do you think our ‘best bet’ will be to park in the street in the Green Zone and walk in to the centre?
    We are happy to pay – but are worried this will not really be possible in the beachfront car-parks (we have been fined in the past for using ‘ordinary’ car-parks)

    kind wishes

    Clive

    Note – we are aware that the Market finishes at 13.30
