This course was challenging and very fun! It is about $14 a person but it is worth it, especially time with family. The staff was great and I also won a free game by getting the golf ball in the treasure chest which is cool. read more

Nice clean course but crazy overpriced!! I was shocked when we paid $70 for 5 people! We had fun, but it was a pretty basic course in terms of the actual holes. Not too many special pathways for hole in ones or fun obstacles. Hole #14 was the best one with a big hill and water. We won 2 free games at the end by putting our golf balls in the X marks the spot collector. I'm sure we will return to use our free games, and that's how they get you back...but I personally think some of the mini golf spots on the boardwalk have better obstacles and prices! They do have a few free parking spots in their lot, otherwise it's paid metered parking on the street. read more

Pirate Island Golf - Mini Golf Near Me - Ocean City, New Jersey

probably the most challenging course in oc. that's what makes it fun! great and entertaining mini golf course, would go again

The off-boardwalk location might suggest that it's worth the diversion. It's not. CRAZY expensive, and the course is not much more than a bunch of flat ovals. It's literally 5x more expensive than the best mini golf in the state- Goofy Golf, which is just a few blocks away ON the boardwalk. I don't get it. read more

Pirate Island Golf is the only mini golf located in Ocean City that is not located on the Boardwalk, that probably is a good thing. We were literally driving on the way to the boardwalk, saw this place and decided to stop and play a quick 18 holes. Of all the mini golf we played in Ocean City this might be one of the best if not the best option. I guess it would come down to if you like you mini golf more kitschy or not. The theming for this location is oddly pirate themed, I would have never guessed it from the name. They have some nice skull stone work that makes a great selfie background and a nice pirate ship that has the 18th hole on it. They also have some massive waterfalls going on here. What I liked most about this place was their use of space, they did not have much land to work with but they used it well, the holes have variety and make good use of the indoor and outdoor holes as well as the second story holes. The 14th hole was my favorite, I wish more places would have a hole like that, it was very well thought out with the elevation drop and the running water. The course was pretty easy so kids should like it was well. I also like that because it is not on the boardwalk it is easy to come over and play instead of dealing all the people and traffic the other mini golf courses have. It is also easy to find, it is located right off the main bridge to the Island. If you do drive bring a quarter for the meter, the parking lot here is supper small. Overall a really good course that you should play if you are in the area. It is also very family friendly skill level. read more

Really hard to get a hole in one. No real place for a big group to wait between holes. It was an average down the shore mini golf course.

I got impressed with the place, excellent service, the young man who served us was very polite and respectful, his name was Grant Tomas. I will definitely return to this place. read more

Yet another mini-golf course from the same people who brought you Congo Falls. What that means of course is excellent theming, overall easy holes and very high prices. Initially our first crack at playing here on Friday the 12th was a no-go as we showed up a little before 9:30am and even though their sign says they open at nine everything was still closed up and no one was there. Fast forward a day and we tried again closer to Noon and this time they were open so things were fine. Price wise you're looking at around nine dollars a person (I forget how much exactly?) and while I would like to say that it's worth it I really would be hard pressed to because to be honest most of the holes, while not gimmies like over at Tee-Time, are only simple par 2 types that can be more than tackled by a seven year old. Even by the time we left no one was playing so the round was fast and while alright nothing was memorable. At the end they have the usual ice cream stuff that we passed on and also there is the ability to win a free game by dropping your ball into a small Plinko style thing and hoping that your ball bounces into the correct hole (none of ours did, boo!). Also worth noting is that they more or less offer no parking here as the "lot" has maybe four spaces and then you're looking at metered parking only on the street. No doubt we'll be back in town in the future and while Pirate Island is the first course you see on 9th, I doubt we'll be back anytime soon as the holes are too easy, the parking is too tough and the prices are way too high plus not being open when you say that you're going to be open is annoying. read more

It's Sunday at pirate island. Final grouping. Me, cousin tony from Kearny, and my other cousin Orville from Pomona. I have a three shot lead heading into the final hole. The hole locations were super tough and the greens were rolling like glass. I recommended the grounds crew to water them down a little bit before the round but they were too "short staffed" to do so. And what also ruffled my feathers is that they don't have pro V's or Scotty camrons to putt with. But hey I did win the tourney and got a free game out of it! read more

Pirate Island Golf - 18th hole - Mini Golf Near Me - Ocean City, New Jersey

Our favorite mini golf in OCNJ. Love that it's off boardwalk and has multi levels of play. Staff friendly and water ice / ice cream available at shack to enjoy at end of game. read more

Overall the pirates Island Golf course is clean with a few fun waterfalls and obstacles on a few holes. There is a sign out front " voted best miniature golf place in south Jersey - I find this hard to believe, as the holes are a little redundant. The pricing is a bit high I feel also. Two kids ages 7 and two adults ran us $39 dollars. This was the second time in two weeks we went. This was mainly due to the fact that I won a free game last time, which of course was exciting so we decided to give them a second try. It was raining most of the day, so we arrived close to 6:30. I provided my feee game voucher and I was told sorry you need to use the voucher prior to 6pm. I politely explained that is was raining all day and we came out as soon as it stopped. The attendant said sorry my hands are tied. She took our 39 dollars then said sorry there may be a delay as workers are still cleaning up the water from the holes. Really !! I get that they don't want to honor the free game vouchers during there busy time, but why offer free Games if your going to make it difficult or put tight restrictions around it. Because of this and the lack of customer service, they get 2 stars from me. read more

My wife, sister and I took our 4 kids ages 11 and under here to play mini golf one evening. The adults had no intention of playing and we were told that "spectators" were not allowed and that we would have to pay to accompany our children. We couldn't believe this ridiculous policy and when we pushed back a second time they said they'd let the 3-year-old play for free. Mini golf for 3 kids and 3 spectators cost $77. The prices and policy of this place are outrageous. It's too bad because it's a nice course. We certainly won't be going back. There's far better value on the boardwalk. read more

We have played many, many,many mini golf courses in OC and this was our first trip to Pirate Island. We felt that the holes were bland and the course was overpriced. However, we did receive a free necklace for following them on social media. With the many more interesting and less expensive choices close by, we will not be returning to Pirate Island Golf in the future. read more

This is my favorite mini golf not on the boardwalk. Also it has ice cream when you finish playing.

Pleasant and polite staff! They took a picture of my husband and I and chit chatted after we were finished. The course is VERY clean and well-mannered! The holes have lots of water traps, slopes, and trick shots. This place is well worth the money, and the best spot I've played in Ocean City, NJ thus far. It features a few animatronic skeletons that tell family-friendly jokes. A smallicecreambar with picnictableseating is at the exit. You can drop your balls to wina free game, but if you're as unlucky like I was you'll still get a coupon for BOGO water ice, which was only $2.50 for a small and super tasty! read more

I've been coming to Ocean City my whole life and playing this course specifically is always on my bucket list. Though only having one mini-golf course compared to the three that Congo Falls offers, this course is the best in the area. Playing a round is not too expensive, only around 9-10 dollars a person. I would highly recommend this course over any course in the area. There is nothing better than playing hole 14 and hitting down the hill, anxiously waiting to see if you can get a hole in one. This course is definitely worth the time and I highly recommend you go out and try this course! read more

We always drive by Pirate Island Golf when we enter OC (right off of the 9th street bridge) and we always say that we should try it sometime. Well we finally did on a Thursday night at 10pm. Needless to say it definitely wasn't crowded that late at night (also probably because it's not located near the boardwalk). It's $9 per person to golf. Looking around at other mini golf spots in the area (on the boards), $9 is pretty steep. A lot of other places are between $7-$8. A couple of bucks isn't too much but when you have a big crowd it can make a difference. The decor, pirate ship, and waterfalls made for some fun family pictures! I do wish they would have incorporated some of these features into some of the holes. Each hole seemed to be similar to the previous, a few bumps or a hill here and there to throw you off, but nothing really fun or interesting. We had a fun time at Pirate Island Golf, but next time we're in the mini golf spirit we'll probably be trying other OC options. read more

Very fun, a good mini golfing place staff was friendly lost multiple golf balls but they just kept givin me more man i lost at least 12 and my girlfriend broke one of their clubs but it was okay they seemed not too upset. read more

Good location, great looking theme. Semi-challenging, but not too tough. Average price ($9). Fun, and more creative than the flat boardwalk courses. read more

I really liked this course a lot. It was more skill based which was fun with my kiddos who are older!

First time playing here, with three 8-year-olds in the party. Parking was available on a side street one block away due to an adjacent construction site. First thing I noticed was the counter and course were neat, organized, and well-maintained. Price per person mildly high at $8.95 for the afternoon. While some holes were mildly challenging, most were not. The children were even looking for more in the way of special paths and tunnels for the ball which they have enjoyed at other courses. Overall, while it is pretty good, this course has the potential to be superb, but unfortunately misses that mark. read more
