Sleeping between 19.00:10.00 and 8:XNUMX on the beach of Scheveningen is not an option. Those who are found with their tent on the beach around XNUMX in the morning can always count on a visit from the enforcers. Sleeping on the Hague beach is prohibited. Of course you can sleep well during the day while you are baking in the sun. But camping or sleeping on the beach at night is not allowed. Just to be clear in the General local ordinance (APV) The Hague says that it is forbidden to sleep on the beach between 19.00:10.00 and XNUMX:XNUMX.

The municipality works with emergency services and residents and entrepreneurs to keep the city beautiful, clean and in order. Nevertheless, there are people who don't take it too seriously with the rules. And the enforcers are taking action against that. The enforcement teams work from the police stations and are also managed by the police.

It is forbidden to lie or sleep, whether or not using any form of shelter, including in any case the use of a car on or on the road between sunset and sunrise, or between sunrise and sunset or to sleep, after a police officer has instructed it to be ended in the interest of public order or security.

It is also forbidden to place a vehicle, caravan, tent, caravan or similar or other accommodation in or on the road in The Hague with the apparent purpose of using it as a sleeping place or to spend the night there or to provide an opportunity to do so.
