If you have more than one child you will have to huff it to get everyone in shoes and bowling balls picked out.

You have five minutes to get situated in your lane before the clock starts ticking. Uncle Bucks Fishbowl was very clean and the lanes were practically sparkling. The novelty of bowling wore off around minute 23 and the wandering toddler came out. She told us the little ones tend to be done in about 20 minutes to a half-hour and she hit the nail on the head. It was great that they offered lane rentals in half-hour increments and the staff even recommended it for her. This was our daughter’s first time bowling so we went in ready to jump ship in a moment’s notice. The staff were friendly and got us squared away in a lane within minutes. Take a few minutes to soak in all in, because it is a sight to behold. The bowling alley is truly a nautical feast for the eyes. One of the perks of vacationing in the month of April which is a low tourist season for Destin. If you are on the hunt for a great indoor thing to do in Destin, FL Uncle Bucks Fishbowl is right up your alley!Īfter grabbing the topless mermaid door handles to enter this magical underwater playland we were surprised that it was not crowded.

Where sea creatures adorn every wall and little scallywags can grab their bowling balls out of a shark’s mouth. Nothing will prepare you for the pleasant surprise of stepping foot into an underwater-themed bowling alley. Our quest to find a bowling alley along the emerald coast washed us into Uncle Bucks Fishbowl during our visit to Destin, FL. Burnt to a crisp with sand in places there shouldn’t be our family was in need of a break from the beach.
