Mini golf has been a Jersey Shore tradition for nearly a century, and Main Line Today's latest guide makes the case for why it is still one of the best ways to spend a sunny afternoon at the beach. From classic boardwalk courses to elaborate themed layouts, there is a stop for every Shore town on this list.
- North Beach Mini Golf in Atlantic City offers boardwalk and inlet views with an 18-hole course that allows BYOB, open daily from 9am to 9pm
- Go Fish Mini Golf in Avalon features a maritime theme with a giant shark and breaching sperm whale, while Congo Falls Adventure Golf in Margate brings a sub-Saharan safari theme complete with water hazards
- Cape May Miniature Golf, known locally as Octopus Golf, recently installed brand-new greens and sits next to an ice cream parlor, while Tee-Time Golf in Ocean City has operated as a cash-only, wooden-course institution since 1977
- Club 18 in Stone Harbor and the 27-hole Starlux in Wildwood round out the list with multi-tiered courses and themed sections built for a full afternoon of competition
Whether you are entertaining the family or just looking for a low-key evening activity, a round of mini golf is hard to beat with the salt air and a little friendly competition.
