what are the options? i dont come here often, cant get a vbs until 2am, managed to parked near the worlds end pub - which looks pleasant but as i’m up early that’ll have to be inspected another time, dont think i’d have got in here if i was much later - so what other options are available??

Laybys, with traveller camps along side them, there’s a couple near the Asda round about, those are prob the safest.
Other wise as far away from the place as possible.
if you carry on past dock entrance towards tilbury station there is 2 little laybys opposite station, i used to park there and walk across the bridge to the chippy/Chinese etc, that’s if you can get in for all the other cars/trucks of course,or round near asda theres a few spots with no double yellows. or in the laybys on the way in off the a13 either side.place is a hole!
this is what i suspected, hence the question - on the off chance i’d got it wrong lol!
Are you looking to get food etc or just quiet parking ?

just a parking question in general to be honest - safety is priority after that anything is a bonus, like i say this worlds end place looks nice - but no beer tonight so i’m stopping in and cooking something exotic out of a tin lol!! looks like you need to be here early though so where would you go later on? thats the good thing with felixstowe, you are spoiled for choice as long as you’ve got some food with you, if you havent there are options to get some.
Nice quiet layby off the main drag just on the a128 by the cafe 2 mins past tilbury turn off.

Don’t ever park anywhere once you come onto the estate where asda is as it is a clearway no parking traffic wardens patrol day and night

So did I, ticket was issued at 02:40. I started a thread about it at the time. No double yellows, but very small clearway signs hidden in the undergrowth.

Not a place i’d choose that’s a rough part of town.
I thought ‘ALL OF TILBURY’ was Rough 
It is but that’'s ideal for lorry crime it’s out the way.
Tilbury town’s not as bad now as it was in the 80’s but still bad if your an outsider.
