Adventure Golf at The Den in Teignmouth

Looking back at our visit to the Adventure Golf course on Teignmouth Sea Front.


The Dinosaur Adventure Golf course at The Den on Teignmouth Sea Front in Devon

The 616th course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour was the dinosaur Adventure Golf course at The Den park in Teignmouth, Devon back in 2015.

Happy International Laser Tag Day

Today is International Laser Tag Day!


International Laser Tag Day is celebrated on the 28th March and marks the opening of the first commercial laser tag arena - Photon in Dallas, Texas which opened in 1984!

The day is also known as 'National Laser Tag Day' and 'Laser Tag Day'. It was first celebrated in 2014.

Check out the Laser Tag Museum website for more information.


We're fans of laser tag, and it's been far too long since we've had a game!

Time flies and while we posted about Emily's trip to the Isle of Wight back in June 2021 we didn't get round to covering the individual course visits fully at the time.

We've been to the Isle of Wight several times over the years and have been to most, but not all of the courses there. Some of the courses have changed over the years, with at least two of the courses undergoing refurbishments, and one changing twice since we first played it!

It's certainly interesting seeing the changes and developments on the island and we're looking forward to another trip there in the future.

We've now travelled to a total of 1,075 courses on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. Our adventures began on the mainland side of the Solent at Treasure Island Adventure Golf in Southsea back in September 2006.

Dino Islands Adventure Golf at Sandham Gardens in Sandown was originally a Beton-style Minigolf course, but was refurbished and made into the Adventure Golf course several years ago.

It's certainly interesting seeing the changes and developments on the island and we're looking forward to another trip there in the future.

We've now travelled to a total of 1,075 courses on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. Our adventures began on the mainland side of the Solent at Treasure Island Adventure Golf in Southsea back in September 2006.
