NEW COURSE! Dinosaur Cove at South Shields



Today we played a brand new course that's just opened in the seaside town of South Shields in the northeast.  


It's a 12 hole course and played really well, if a little slow, on the green.   


The course includes animatronic dinosaurs which move and growl, it's really good fun.  And there are some nice touches like this sign too...


The 12 holes of the course are split into two sections of 6 holes each in front of an amusement arcade.


The final score for today's game was Sunny Jim 26 and Flaming Nora 32.  A good score from Sunny Jim was helped by the fact he scored two hole-in-ones!


In short, we really enjoyed this game and will return to play it again. It was really busy on the day we played with lots of families and children playing too.


There's water involved too and a chance to lose your ball in the moat if you're not careful on one of the holes. 

All in all, a great game.  It's right next to Smuggler's Cove mini golf too so you can play two games while you're there.

A dead course in Parque Tenatico, Arrecife, Lanzarote

We've walked past Parque Tenatico in Arrecife on the Canary Island of Lanzarote a few times over the years and always thought it'd be a good place for a crazy golf course. 

Turns out there used to be one there. 

Always sad to see "dead" courses.
