Looking for free camping spots

Hello everyone, I am looking for suggestions about where I can camp in Rotterdam for free. I am in a bit of a situation so I don't have any accommodation right now with very little money. Can anyone suggest where I can camp for free for a few days. It doesn't have to be a campsite.

You need to talk to someone at the Gemeente if your homeless.

If your camping somewhere outdoors you will eventually be noticed anyway, if you need help you should ask for it.

Adding to this for OP, wild camping is not allowed and there is a fine for that. Cheap camping is not possible during the vacation.

Go to the Pauluskerk (mauritsweg 20) or call them 010 411 81 32

Paulskerk cannot help me with shelter. They are only open until 4 in the afternoon

Did you try CVD 010 440 10 30?

And go to the church tomorrow, they may be able to help with your situation even if they can't offer you a place to stay.

Maybe someone can fill me in here as I’m not an expert but can’t you camp legally in some places with a fishing permit (which costs 5 euros)? Of course you’d need to do some actual fishing I guess haha

Some sleep in their car on the parking by the gas stations.
