Adventure Golf & Sports (AGS) is revolutionizing the way cruise operators keep their passengers entertained while at sea. President Scott Lundmark emphasizes the importance of providing a variety of facilities, including mini golf courses, golf hitting bays, shuffleboard, and courts for pickleball, croquet, and bean bag toss.

AGS takes a meticulous approach to designing and installing these facilities, considering factors such as passenger demographics, space allocation, traffic flow, and accessibility. The company aims to enhance interactivity, playability, and visual appeal while staying within budget and delivering projects on time.

Mini golf courses are a standout feature of AGS’s offerings, with their lightweight and durable construction, excellent drainage, and low maintenance requirements. These courses provide a long-lasting asset for cruise lines with minimal operating costs.

One of AGS’s most notable projects is the mini golf course on Royal Caribbean International’s Icon of the Seas, which debuted in January 2024. This course boasts a large footprint, extreme elevation changes, and stunning views both on and off the course. Guests can enjoy interactive moving elements and play 24/7, adding to the excitement of their cruise experience.

The success of AGS’s mini golf courses highlights the company’s commitment to providing innovative and engaging entertainment options for cruise passengers. As cruise operators continue to prioritize passenger satisfaction, AGS’s offerings are sure to remain in high demand.
