What to Expect

Skeet shooting tests reflexes, timing, and accuracy. Clay targets launch across a field from multiple angles. Shooters spot, track, and fire in moments. The operation calls it "the tingle of anticipation before the target launches and the pop of adrenaline that follows."

Check-In Location Check in at the Miniature Golf station. Pre-complete the online waiver to speed up your check-in process.

The park also offers private beach rentals and birthday parties:
