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.

Great shape. Friendly for beginners. Pace of play was great.
Good fun
Greens are good few patches being worked on.
Fairways are good. Pace was awesome. Staff very friendly. Greens are small ,green complexes are well manicured.
In Great Shape
Not busy in the early afternoon and in great shape.
Good Track
The course is a good track to play- West to South. The so-called back nine (South Course) needs a little TLC and a lot of short tight holes. I believe the South could use some reshaping like removing some strategic trees to ease some of the challenge but not take away from the challenge. This could keep a steady speed of play because not every foursome is hitting a second ball or looking for balls all the time. But, overall I recommend playing here.
Nice course
Weather was hot, course was in good shape, greens in good shape, pro shop well stocked and, people were very pleasant. Overall a very nice expieriance.
The course was in pretty good shape considering how dry and hot it has been. . I expected the course to be in rough shape but to my surprise it was in good condition. Great value !!
The course condition is much improved !
I play this course every time we vacation at Fernandina Beach.(8 years ). I used to call it a cow pasture but last two years has much improved.It still has issues but evident that they are making an effort to improve the conditions. It’s way better than past years.Thank you for the new vision and effort to make it better course.
Greens punched
Greens were punched, no one ever said that, the pace of play was horrid. A foursome wouldn’t pick up pace and had 4 groups waiting behind them and the ranger just drove around and never said anything to them. Spent more time waiting than playing the course. The grass had just been cut but before that it hadn’t been mowed in awhile so there was a good chance to lose it in the fairway. All in all. Really disappointed. I won’t be back anytime soon.
My overall
I gave a 4 Star Overall Rating and Course Rating mainly because the greens have been freshly aerated. Otherwise the course is in really good shape. I would and have recommended this course.
Great course overall
Great layout and friendly staff. Greens were in ok shape rolled very very very slow today. Looks like they were punched within the last few weeks had lots of sand left. Other than that great course is pretty shaded for the heat. Can’t beat the value for the area
Next time
Course is in pretty good shape. Greens are nice but slightly slow due to the heat. Look forward to cooler weather for a little faster green's. Still think the cost should be about ten dollars less.
In great shape!
Great course to play. In great shape. Greens rolled true. A little slow but not hairy. They were in good shape. There were a few that had some burnt edges but overall not bad. Fairways were lush and perfect. Could stand to be just a little lower cut for more rollout but I also get it given the Florida heat in July. Ended up playing alone as no one was on my tee time. Played front nine in 1 hr 15min. And back in just under two hrs. Played West and South nines. Always love playing here. Worth the 40 min drive up from Jax.
Good times
Much improved course. 2023 til now is night and day. Few rough looking tee boxes ( didnt hinder anything), other than that the course was in great shape. Fairways and greens are in great condition..I played the west and south courses. Amenity wise ..not having water on a course in Florida is diabolical. Maybe it s for legal reasons. I still enjoyed playing there. Plenty of shade to hideout in.
Enjoyable Round of Golf
The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. It has three 9 hole couses which gives you different options. I played the West/North 18 holes which was in good condition with undulating greens. It has plenty of tee boxes to fit your age or ability. I really enjoyed my round and will play it again.
