This puts the entrance across Shiprow rather than requiring a longer walk through the city centre. NCP’s pay-on-the-day tariff is £6 for 1 to 2 hours, £9 for 2 to 3 hours, £12 for 3 to 4 hours and £15 for 4 to 24 hours (NCP). An early-bird entry rate of £8 applies when entering by 0900 (NCP). Blue Badge users still pay £1.50 per hour at NCP Shiprow (Euan’s Guide), so the car park is the practical option for visitors who need accessible parking directly opposite. ## City-Centre Alternatives Around Shiprow and Accessible Parking The NCP Shiprow car park is not the only nearby public parking choice. The council also provides a separate map of disabled parking locations around Aberdeen city centre (Explore Aberdeen). Blue Badge parking is available outside Aberdeen Maritime Museum, according to Explore Aberdeen (Explore Aberdeen). The museum’s access information also identifies a public car park nearby rather than onsite parking (AccessAble). These arrangements make the surrounding city-centre facilities more relevant than searching for a bay on Shiprow immediately outside the entrance. Show map of Aberdeen City ## Shiprow Traffic, Busy Visits and Surrounding-Street Rules Drivers should plan for a public car park rather than stopping at the frontage, while Blue Badge users can use the accessible provision outside the site identified by Explore Aberdeen (Explore Aberdeen). NCP Shiprow’s early-bird tariff requires entry by 0900 (NCP), making the arrival time important for drivers planning to use that rate. The city-centre layout means a legal marked bay or car-park space is preferable to waiting on surrounding streets. ## Parksy Parking Spaces Near Aberdeen Maritime Museum Parksy lists a secure 24/7 parking lot 207 yards away at £15 a day. A parking space at Jurys Inn is 251 yards away at £2.90 a day, while a space at Aberdeen Douglas Hotel is the same distance and costs £1.41 an hour. Other nearby listings include a Woodend Hospital space 251 yards away at £3 an hour, secure covered parking 0.2 miles away at £3.50 an hour, and a secure 24/7 parking lot 0.2 miles away at £72.99 a week. The distances place these options within the central Aberdeen parking area, although the listed types range from hotel and hospital spaces to covered and open parking. ## Walking From Aberdeen Railway Station and Waterloo Aberdeen railway station is the nearest station, at 0.2 miles from Aberdeen Maritime Museum and a 5-minute walk. The route provides a straightforward alternative for visitors who would rather leave the car outside the busiest part of the centre. Aberdeen Waterloo railway station is also nearby, at approximately a 6-minute walk from the site. The museum is at 52-56 Shiprow in Aberdeen city centre, so both rail options serve a central arrival point close to the attraction.
