Answer
Tee times and mini-golf queues peak 9 a.m.–noon—book or arrive before heat and afternoon storms. Coastal Highway hops take longer in July than maps predict—park once when you can. Keep an indoor or condo backup for thunder delays so one closure does not waste the day. Hydrate and shade-break between mini golf & arcades blocks; heat sends more visitors to urgent care than missing a single attraction.
