Mini Golf in Puerto Colón, Tenerife

A look at a Mini Golf course in Puerto Colón, Tenerife.

A big thanks to our friend and minigolf rival Gareth Holmes for sending over these snaps of a minigolf course he sopping at the shopping centre in Costa Adeje, Puerto Colón, Tenerife.

Mini Golf Kapital is home to two courses - one is 18-holes and the other is a 12-hole layout.

The venue looks to have changed up the courses in the last few years. Back in January 2020 another friend of ours sent photos of what was then a minigolf and a billiard golf.

It appears that the Swedish Felt lanes have been moved to where the billiard golf was, with the former Swedish Felt area now home to a new set of holes.

The Crazy World of Minigolf Tour is 20 years old in 2026

This year is the 20th year playing on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

2026 sees us hit another big minigolf milestone as we mark 20 years of our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour travels.

How it started.

We played the Victory Trail course at Treasure Island Adventure Golf in Southsea, Hampshire, England on Saturday 30th September 2006. At the end of our 9-hole round I won a free game by firing the cannon on the lucky last hole!

When we got home from the weekend away we found a list of 600 or so minigolf courses in the UK and wider British Isles on the excellent MiniatureGolfer.com website that Tim 'Ace Man' Davies had compiled. We thought it'd be fun to see how many of them we could visit on day trips and weekends away to the seaside.

How its going.

To date we've been to 1,114 miniature golf courses. 1,053 of them have been in the British Isles.

As well as playing minigolf in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Jersey and the Isle of Man we’ve travelled to minigolf courses in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Finland, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Poland, Singapore, Spain (including Lanzarote and Majorca), Sweden and the USA.

From 600 courses in the UK to more than 1,300.

When our crazy golfing travels began in 2006 there were around 600 miniature golf courses in the UK and wider British Isles.

There are now more than 1,400 - and there are lots of new places to play the game opening all the time.

Unfortunately, several courses have closed over the years. But on a brighter note, some others have been refurbished, redeveloped, or completely transformed into new layouts.

All of the changes and updates have meant that our minigolfing quest to visit every course is becoming never-ending!

When we originally set off to visit as many courses as possible the target list was 600 in the British Isles. And almost 20 years later, we've still got around 50 of those original courses to visit!

Minigolf record makers.

Our travels have been recognised by the Guinness World Records, and I'm a record holder for "Most miniature golf courses visited" (902 at the time of going to press). Check out the Guinness World Records 2024 book and the GWR website to see a lot more minigolf records too!

Where next on our crazy minigolfing adventures?
