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.

Good

We played the West and the South courses. They both have improved 100% over the last year. With a little more work, they will be comparable to most of the courses on Amelia Island.

Great Muny for Friends and Family

Fernandina Beach has three nines--each with its own personality. The North Course is probably the favorite, fun, straight forward, and a great nine to play with wife or family. The West is a long-hitter's nine to play with the guys, and the South is my favorite--a 'target' course, with trouble & just long enough to provide a good challenge.

I've played dozens of rounds at FBGC and have enjoyed it each time.

Nice layout but need to get it together

Had two flow groups ahead. Tees are terrible. Greens are slick as glass. Booked threesome but called in morning to add player and was told spot was booked but no one was put with us when we played!
