☕ Coffeeshops in IJmuiden: Quiet Smoke Near the Sea
IJmuiden isn’t Amsterdam — and that’s exactly the point. This coastal town is all about working-class energy, open skies, and a no-nonsense attitude. Its two licensed coffeeshops fit that same vibe: functional, friendly, and totally free of hype.
Whether you're coming back from the beach, heading to the ferry, or just cruising through North Holland, IJmuiden offers a low-key alternative to crowded city shops.
🌿 What to Expect From IJmuiden’s Cannabis Scene
With two coffeeshops in town, IJmuiden keeps it simple but steady. Both are takeaway-only, focusing on solid product, fair prices, and quick service. No lounges, no chaos — just walk in, pick your product, and go.
You’ll typically find:
-
A reliable menu of weed, hash, and pre-rolls
-
Rolling gear like papers and grinders
-
Dutch and English speaking staff, often chill and direct
-
A calm atmosphere with mostly local customers
Great if you just want to buy your weed without being sold a “lifestyle.”
🚗 Why IJmuiden is Worth a Stop
Located just west of Haarlem and close to the dunes and the beach, IJmuiden is a perfect quick stop if you’re heading to the sea or exploring the coast. It's also a frequent detour for drivers heading between Noord-Holland towns like Beverwijk, Velsen, or Heemskerk.
No big city parking drama. No queues. Just a smooth pickup and back on your way.

Coffee shops near the borders with Belgium and Germany often have restrictions on allowing tourists. To enter and purchase cannabis, you must either be a Dutch citizen or be employed in the Netherlands.
If you're temporarily working or studying in the country, you can obtain proof from the city council and request a GBA Extract (GBA-Uitreksel). This documentation will help demonstrate your eligibility to access these establishments.
