Mini golf, crazy golf, adventure golf, miniature golf. Whatever you call it, the south of Tenerife has more courses than most visitors realise, spread across all three main resort areas. Whether you are looking for something to do with children on a quiet afternoon, an activity to fill the hour before dinner, or a genuinely competitive evening out after the beach, the courses in the south cover all of those situations and most of them are within easy walking distance of the main hotel areas.
This guide covers every course in Los Cristianos, Playa de las Américas, and Costa Adeje, with honest details on what each one is like, who it suits best, what it costs, and when to go.

Mini Golf in Playa de las Américas
Playa de las Américas has the most concentrated selection of mini golf and crazy golf courses in the south, with two well-established venues sitting within the main resort area. Both are accessible on foot from the main hotel strips and both stay open until midnight, making them viable evening activities after dinner.
Vivo Mini Golf Treasure Island, Playa de las Américas
Vivo Mini Golf is the most elaborate crazy golf experience available anywhere in the south of Tenerife. It sits in the Treasure Island complex on Avenida Rafael Puig Lluvina and operates two full 18-hole courses set within an impressive themed environment of tropical gardens, waterfalls, a lazy river, caves, and pirate-themed obstacles that make it feel considerably more immersive than a standard flat course with windmills.
The two courses are differentiated by difficulty. The yellow course is the easier of the two, designed for all ages and abilities. The red course is more challenging, involving caves, elevated sections, river rapids, and a tower obstacle named after a character called Look Out Bill. Both courses take around 45 minutes to an hour each, making the double course experience a solid two-hour activity.
Beyond the golf itself, Vivo has a bar serving drinks and snacks, a pool table, air hockey, and a 5D virtual reality simulator. The whole complex is family-friendly, with ramps providing pushchair and wheelchair access throughout, shaded seating areas, and soft clubs for very young children. The evening visit, after dinner when the lighting is on and the crowds have thinned, is consistently described in reviews as the better version of the Vivo experience.
Vivo Mini Golf Treasure Island
| Address | Avenida Rafael Puig Lluvina 7, Playa de las Américas |
| Opening Hours | 9am to midnight daily, 7 days a week |
| Adult Price | Single course ~€10.95 | Double course ~€13.45 |
| Child Price | Single course ~€8.95 | Double course ~€10.95 |
| Booking | Walk-in or book online (slight discount) |
| Website | vivotreasureislandminigolf.com |
The double course ticket is valid for seven days. Buy it on day one and use the second round on a different day. Many families split the two courses across the week, which gives them a return visit to look forward to mid-holiday.
Parque Santiago Mini Golf, Playa de las Américas
Parque Santiago Mini Golf sits within the gardens of the Parque Santiago resort complex in the heart of Playa de las Américas. It has three courses in total: two 18-hole courses and a shorter 9-hole option, making it the largest course selection at any single venue in the south.
The courses are designed around water features that run throughout the complex, giving the whole environment a refreshing, garden-like quality. The layout is spacious rather than cramped, and recent reviews consistently highlight the immaculate maintenance. The 9-hole course is the right starting point for very young children or anyone who wants a shorter experience. Notably less theatrical than Vivo, with a more natural garden aesthetic. Whether this is a positive or negative depends entirely on your preference.
Parque Santiago Mini Golf
| Address | Avenida de las Américas 3, Playa de las Américas |
| Opening Hours | 10am to midnight daily |
| 9-hole Price | Adults ~€7 | Children ~€6 |
| 18-hole Price | Check directly at venue |
| Booking | Walk-in only, no advance booking needed |
Parque Santiago suits families who find the full Vivo experience a bit overwhelming. Calmer, more relaxed, and the 9-hole option is perfect for younger or less patient players.
Mini Golf in Los Cristianos
Los Cristianos has one dedicated mini golf course on the seafront. It is well-placed and makes good use of the harbour setting that gives Los Cristianos its particular character.
Oasis Mini Golf, Los Cristianos
Oasis Mini Golf is the longest-established mini golf course in Los Cristianos and occupies a position right on the seafront promenade. The 18-hole course is colourful, well-maintained, and benefits from Atlantic views that make it one of the more scenically pleasant places to play crazy golf in the south. At approximately €4 per adult it is also the cheapest course on this list, which makes it a low-pressure choice for families unsure whether their children will stay engaged for a full round.
The sea views from certain holes are particularly lovely in the late afternoon. The course pairs naturally with a walk along the Los Cristianos promenade and dinner at one of the harbour restaurants. For where to eat nearby, see our guide to the best restaurants in Los Cristianos.
Oasis Mini Golf
| Address | Avenida de Juan Alfonso Batista 20, Los Cristianos |
| Opening Hours | 10am to 10pm daily |
| Price | Adults ~€4 | Children ~€3 |
| Booking | Walk-in only. Cash preferred |
Directly on the Los Cristianos seafront promenade, walkable from all main Los Cristianos hotels. Combine with a harbour dinner for a full evening out.
Mini Golf in Costa Adeje
Costa Adeje has three mini golf options. Two are simple, casual courses well suited to families wanting a quick round near the beach. The third, Kapital, is a more distinctive option with sea views and a bar that has built a strong reputation among visitors who have tried several courses across the south.
La Pinta Beach Mini Golf, Costa Adeje
The La Pinta Beach course sits near the La Pinta beach area in Costa Adeje and is one of the smaller, more casual mini golf options in the south. Not the most elaborate course on this list, but its seafront location and accessible layout make it a good spontaneous choice for families. At approximately €5 per person it is low-risk for a quick round before or after the beach.
La Pinta Beach Mini Golf
| Address | Calle Roma 4, Costa Adeje, near La Pinta beach |
| Opening Hours | Late morning to evening. Check on the day |
| Price | ~€5 per person |
| Booking | Walk-in only. Cash useful as backup |
Playa de Fañabé Mini Golf, Costa Adeje
The Fañabé course sits between Fañabé beach and the promenade in Costa Adeje, directly opposite the Mr. Sister Showbar. Its location is its defining characteristic: the course is set up so that parents can sit at the bar opposite, have a drink, and watch their children play from a relaxed vantage point. Reviews suggest it works very well in practice as a family evening activity, and the proximity to the bars and restaurants of the Fañabé promenade makes it a natural part of an evening out in that area.
Playa de Fañabé Mini Golf
| Location | Near Playa de Fañabé, opposite Mr. Sister Showbar, Costa Adeje |
| Opening Hours | Late morning to evening. Check at the venue or Google Maps |
| Price | ~€5 per person |
| Booking | Walk-in only |
Kapital Mini Golf, Costa Adeje
Kapital Mini Golf is frequently cited in recent reviews as the favourite course in the south for visitors who have tried several options. The setting is the defining feature: the course sits on the seafront in Costa Adeje with Atlantic views and sunset sightlines that make it a noticeably more visually impressive experience than most of the other courses on this list.
The course now operates both a 12-hole and a newer 18-hole course, with a deal available for playing both. The 18-hole course is described in recent reviews as creative and genuinely challenging. Kapital has a bar serving cold drinks including Dorada beer, and the owner is noted consistently in reviews for being friendly and welcoming. A small prize is reportedly given to the winner of each game, which adds a competitive edge to proceedings.
Kapital closes at 6pm and is shut on Saturdays. It is not suitable as a late-night post-dinner activity. Plan for a mid-afternoon or early evening visit Monday to Friday only.
Kapital Mini Golf
| Address | Avenida de Colón, Costa Adeje seafront. Search “Mini Golf Kapital” on Google Maps |
| Opening Hours | Monday to Friday 10:30am to 6pm. Closed Saturdays |
| Price | Check directly. Combined 12-hole and 18-hole deal available |

Evening Mini Golf in South Tenerife
One of the underrated pleasures of the south Tenerife holiday is the post-dinner evening activity, and mini golf is one of the best options available precisely because it works well in the warmth of a Tenerife evening in a way that it never quite manages on a chilly evening in the UK.
Both Vivo and Parque Santiago are open until midnight. Vivo in particular comes into its own in the evening when the lighting transforms the course, the crowds thin slightly, and the bar becomes more of a social focal point. Taking your time over dinner and arriving at Vivo at 9pm or 10pm is entirely viable and a lovely way to spend an evening.
Kapital is the right choice for a pre-dinner early evening visit rather than a post-dinner one. The combination of sea views, cold Dorada, and golden-hour light between 4pm and 6pm is genuinely worth planning around. Remember it closes at 6pm and is shut on Saturdays.
Post-dinner (open until midnight): Vivo Mini Golf and Parque Santiago.
Early evening golden hour (closes 6pm, Mon-Fri only): Kapital Mini Golf.
Pre-dinner afternoon round: all courses.
Tips for Getting the Most Out of Mini Golf in South Tenerife
The double course ticket at Vivo is slightly cheaper when booked online and gives you seven-day validity on the second round. Book at vivominigolf.com before you arrive rather than paying on the door.
Kapital closes at 6pm and is shut on Saturdays. It is easy to arrive and find it closed. Check current hours at their website or on Google Maps before visiting.
Peak time at the Las Américas courses is mid-afternoon. Going before 11am or after 8pm means shorter waits at popular holes and a more relaxed pace overall.
Most courses accept cards but some of the smaller Costa Adeje venues operate primarily on cash. Oasis in Los Cristianos in particular prefers cash. Having a few euros in your pocket saves any awkwardness at the entrance.
Mini golf in south Tenerife works exceptionally well alongside other family activities. For more ideas on what to do with children across the south, see our guide to things to do in south Tenerife with kids. For the Los Cristianos courses, combining with a harbour dinner afterwards makes for a complete evening out. See our best restaurants in Los Cristianos guide for where to eat nearby.
