Take the A9 (travelling from Amsterdam, The Hague, Haarlem or Alkmaar) and turn off at the junction IJmuiden, Beverwijk (to A22), just follow the sign to IJmuiden and turn left at the traffic lights. Continue following the signs to IJmuiden.

Although possible, travelling by train both from and to the port is not ideal. The nearest Train station is Haarlem Central, you can reach this station by bus from IJmuiden. Take bus no.74 to ‘Plein 1945’ and then change onto bus no.75 heading to ‘Haarlem Centraal’.

In co-operation with a local coach firm, DFDS provides a connecting coach service between the ferry port in Amsterdam (Felison Terminal in IJmuiden) and the Central Railway Station in Amsterdam. On days of departure coaches leave the central station between 15.00 and 16.00. On arriving at the Amsterdam ferry port, a coach transfer departs from IJmuiden and heads into the Amsterdam city centre. The coach stop in Amsterdam is opposite Central Station, in front of Hotel Victoria, Damrak 1.

The port offers limited facilities, however there is a large marina within walking distance that has several restaurants and cafés. A little further on is the beach with more dining options.

Port staff will be happy to help with any assistance you may require, although we suggest you advise of any special requirements when you book.

An unsecured car park is available in IJmuiden. Vehicles are left at the owner's risk. DFDS have their own car park available for 6€/night.
