APCOA-run parking next to Beach Station & seafront
Beach Station Car Park, managed by APCOA, is a council-owned surface lot offering 80 marked bays including six disabled spaces located near the station entrance. Operating hours are 6 am–10 pm daily; pay-and-display machines accept coins, contactless, and RingGo payments; no overnight parking. The tarmac surface is grooved for drainage and inspected quarterly; potholes repaired within 48 hours. LED column lighting ensures safe early-morning and evening access, and two CCTV cameras monitor entry, exit, and pedestrian routes. Pedestrian pathways lead directly to Felixstowe Railway Station (1 minute walk) and to the beachfront (5 minutes). Two Type 2 EV charging bays are located near the entrance, available via pay-as-you-go. Weekly litter clearance and hedge trimming maintain site tidiness.
