On our June 2021 Florida Panhandle birthday mini golf binge, Mr. Tee and I flew into Pensacola and drove our way west towards our AirBNB in Destin. On the drive, we took a scenic detour through the heart of Pensacola Beach and stumbled upon UFO’s Mini-Golf, making it the first official game of our trip.
Rating
UFO’s Mini-Golf had obviously been a different, more generic course under previous ownership. It appears that whoever bought it revamped the theming by adding new branding, signage and some cosmic enhancements onto the course. While the out-of-this-world elements were humorous, they were not so stellar and couldn’t disguise the fact that this course has seen better days. Being the only beachside option, it seemed to be a popular choice, but there are definitely more distinctive mini golf destinations in the Destin/Pensacola area.
Pros
Beachside location
Some unique galaxy and alien theming
Ice cream served on premise
Cons
Course shows signs of wear
Not fully ADA accessible
Nerdy Notes
- 18 holes, Par 43
