As with any other city, avoid any spaces and areas that are marked as no-parking/tow-away zones.

Free Waterfront Parking
And, best of all, if you are in the mood for a bit of a stroll and want to soak up a bit of Sanford’s prime waterfront location, consider parking on Seminole Boulevard along the RiverWalk. Enjoy a stroll, and then it’s two short blocks to all the downtown action.

There is an abundance of no-limit parking all over the downtown area, so take advantage of that and stay for as long as you like! There are so many great places to visit.
