Garyp (Dutch: Garijp) is a village in the municipality of Tytsjerksteradiel within the province of Friesland, Netherlands. It had a population of around 1,894 in January 2017.
The village was first mentioned between 1325 and 1336 as Garipe and means "village of the river bank". Garyp developed into a stretched-out village on a sandy ridge. The current Dutch Reformed church dates from 1838; however, the first church was built around 1100. Around 1930, the peat in the region was excavated.
