Crazier Golf in Eastbourne

14.Crazier Golf in Eastbourne

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 41 reviews · 45 minutes (approx.) · from $12Best value

Play one 9-hole round of obstacle-packed crazy golf at Boom Battle Bar Eastbourne. Expect catapults, loops, conveyors, and a relaxed bar setting. The course takes about 45 minutes, though some groups finish faster. Mobile tickets, flexible timeslots, and nearby public transport make it an easy rainy-day activity for families, friends, and colleagues.

“We tried the Crazier Golf experience — it was fun and different, but it only took my family about 15 minutes to complete. At £10 per person, it felt quite expensive for such a short activity. Also, the ball stays in the final hole, so you can’t play again. Overall, it was enjoyable but not really worth the price for the time spent.”
