Welcome to Boardwalk Bowl

Just steps from the iconic Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Boardwalk Bowl is your ultimate destination for unforgettable fun! Our state-of-the-art facility is more than just a bowling alley—it’s a vibrant hub of entertainment featuring a restaurant and patio, small museum, and lounge for plenty of party fun. Plus, grab your friends and sing your heart out 7 days a week on the same stage that has welcomed Jason Aldean, James Durbin, and the Vienna Boys Choir. Whether you’re planning a family outing, date night, or a party to remember, the Boardwalk Bowl has it all. 

Looking to elevate your game? Stop by our full-service Pro Shop, staffed by IBPSIA-certified professionals. From custom-fitted balls and stylish shoes to lessons, we’ve got everything you need to bowl like a pro.
