Ocean-themed 16-lane bowling alley inside Bass Pro Shops at Destin Commons — the area's best rainy-day stop.
Uncle Buck's Fish Bowl & Grill is hands-down the most unique bowling alley on the Gulf Coast. Tucked inside Bass Pro Shops at Destin Commons, the 16 lanes are designed like you're bowling underwater — giant aquariums, LED wave lighting, and custom bowling balls shaped like octopus, mermaids, fish, and bobbers. It's equal parts bowling alley, ocean-themed restaurant, and arcade.
