Opened in 1955 by a former marine corps member, Bowlarena Lanes has steadily grown over the years to become the popular family-bonding spot it is today. It first started as an 8-lane alley on LeJeune Boulevard, then upgraded to a 16-lane alley in 1961. Bowlarena Lanes then moved to its third and final location in 1979, which features a whopping 32 lanes. This family-oriented bowling center is the perfect spot for families and friends to enjoy a day of laughter, friendly competition, and delicious food and drinks. The center also features a pro shop for all your bowling needs along with an arcade full of exciting games and prizes.
