Beach parking
In summer you cannot simply drive onto the promenade, but these car parks are only a short walk from the sea:
Underground car park Minigolf (Het Zoute)
- On the Sparrendreef 103, beneath the mini golf course, about 100 metres from the beach and close to the Zwin
- 420 spaces, maximum height 1.95 m
- €3.50 per hour and €35 per day.
Underground car park IJzerpark (Knokke)
- On the Dumortierlaan 90A, a few minutes on foot from the beach and the shops
- Around 300 spaces and 90 charging points, maximum height 2.15 m
- €3.30 per hour and €30 per day.
Underground car park Maes en Boereboomplein (Heist)
- In the centre of Heist and the cheapest underground option at €12 for 24 hours, also handy for Duinbergen
- ±125 spaces, entrance on the corner of Marktstraat and Molenstraat
- Maximum height 2.20 m
- €1.80 per hour or part of an hour and €12 for 24 hours.
- Streets near the sea: north of the Isabellavaart, outside the paid zones, the blue zone applies with a 4 hour limit at weekends and in the holidays; for a full beach day a green zone day ticket or a car park works better.
- Promenade closed in summer: from 2 July to 30 August barriers close part of the Zeedijk to traffic (mostly from 11 am to 8 pm); only badge holders may pass.
Free parking in Knokke-Heist
Free parking does exist in Knokke-Heist, as long as you know where and when to look:

Gustave Van Nieuwenhuysestraat day car park (Heist)
- Free during the 2026 summer season. It is a 10 minute walk to the centre of Heist and the promenade, and the coastal tram takes you on to Duinbergen or Knokke
- Evenings and mornings: parking in the red, orange and green zones is free every day from 7 pm to 11 am.
- School days: on ordinary school days the green zone is also free during the day, and you do not need a parking disc in the blue zone (except at car parks of churches, the cultural centre and sports centres).
- Free with no time limit: south of the Isabellavaart canal (which crosses the Heistlaan, Westkapellestraat, Natiënlaan and Kalfstraat) and in the streets east of the line Zwinlaan, Bronlaan, Paulusstraat.
