South/North at Fernandina Beach Golf Club
About
South/North is one of three golf courses at Fernandina Beach Golf Club. The facility is home to three distinct nines that form three different 18-hole combinations. Winding through thick forests of oaks and pines, Fernandina Beach Golf Club's South/North course offers a glimpse at native Florida wildlife. The South nine depends more on accuracy rather than distance while the north nine, the shortest in length of the three, features undulating greens. Water hazards also come into play throughout the golf course. Fernandina Beach's 27 unique holes are made even more appealing by the affordable rates and convenient proximity to Jacksonville and the beach.

Worst tee boxes ive seen
Worst tea boxes I’ve seen in a while, barely any grass very sandy . No flat level spot to tee off . Either below or above your feet . Very bad way to start each hole. Just over all disappointment
Disappointed
Tee boxes were sandy trash , not a single flat spot to tee up . You had to either tee it up below your feet or above your feet,rough way to start each hole, course conditions have been alot better in the past! Fair way was decent , the rough was like playing out of sand instead of rough. Greens do not have a fringe. out of my last 20 outings this year this was my least favorite so far. I enjoyed it better in the past
Need to Rename Course to Plantation Oaks
Played the North and West courses. Many holes have large oak tree limbs hanging out over the fairways and tee boxes. Course needs some serious tree trimming but likely won't happen due to oak trees are over 200 years old.
I likley will not play this course again and IMO not worth the cost to play it.
Improving
Greens are very good, traps are good, tees ok, fairways still a bit thin. Even with the dormant Bermuda grass coming to life, the fairways are still thin.
Outstanding layout
This course was an absolute delight to play. It offered a perfect balance of openness and challenge, complemented by breathtaking natural scenery. I’m definitely going to play this course again.
Unposted rules and grumpy players
Got there early to hit the range.. asked where to park the golf cart and was pointed to a building with minimal parking. Afterwards, I drove up to the putting green. As most, you can park near the green. It was brought to my attention I couldnt park near it by a very grouchy starter. Maybe next time put something up to say where cart parking should be and I was still on the path not on any grass. So, I went up to begin my round after confirming doing West and South by both the office and starter. At the first T, a couple guys came up and I thought they were joining me. Come to find out after being berated with some expletives, I was put in front of a 50 person event. Told the guy to take it up with the office. I did have two persons join me and we moved along pretty quickly only to catch up with several slow players ahead of us. After about 5 holes, Mr Grump behind us drove past and apparently stopped playing. Aside from the jerks I had to deal with, the course was in fair shape. A little pricy for the condition of the course.
Best around
For the price point, this is the best muni around. I love this course and have played it many times. Staff is great, driving range is great, course rocks.
Worth a try
Green and traps were consistent and very playable. The fairways and tees need to improve.( Unfortunately we were behind 3 young guys trying to match the beer count with the hole count. As a result play was slow. This is not the fault of the course. )
