Mini Golf That’s Out Of This World

Mini Golf That’s Out Of This WorldMini golf is an activity that’s fun for the whole family. Space Golf combines all the fun of a classic mini golf course with the adventure and excitement of outer space! The course contains 18 challenging holes featuring planets, aliens, giant robots, flying saucers, and more—all lit by black light. As you progress through the course, lasers, projectors, and funky music will create a one-of-a-kind experience. And the coolest part? Space Golf provides you with 3-D glasses to make the course even more interactive! With an Alien Arcade and a Sci-Fi Café serving hot dogs, pizza, and nachos, Space Golf is a great place to spend the day in Orland Park!

Learn How To Scuba Dive

Learn How To Scuba DiveJust because we live in the Midwest, it doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy the ocean! Scuba Emporium offers swimming, snorkeling, and diving lessons to people in and around Orland Park. You can even get PADI certified! Our favorite thing about Scuba Emporium is the trips they offer where you can go diving in exotic places like Thailand. Their scuba diving lessons are informative, affordable, and give you the opportunity to explore a new, underwater world. Scuba Emporium allows you to push yourself outside of your comfort zone and try something new!
