Fernandina Beach Golf Club is home to three distinct nines, the North, South, and West that make up three different 18-hole combinations. This 27-hole facility boasts a unique configuration on each of the nines for a truly diverse golfing experience. The North/West course at Fernandina Beach Golf Club combines the longest nine, the West, and the shortest nine, the North. The North nine features undulating greens and water hazards but the generous, wide-open fairways of the West nine make the golf course accessible to players of all skill levels. Native foliage in addition to towering oaks and pines throughout the course allow for a scenic escape in addition to an excellent round.

Golf at a Good Price

The course is improving from 1 year ago but still has a long way to go with further improvements. Unless the City of Fernandina Beach gives more money to become a better course, which would increase revenues, improvements will continue to be limited.

Staff is very helpful and friendly and they are doing what they can with limited resources.

Overall, for a lower price round of golf vs. other nearby courses, this course is worth trying.

Rough shape

West course was decent but, the south course is really in bad shape. Won’t be back. It’s been about 15 years since I have been out there. Might be forever before I go back.

Good for a turist

Relaxed course, well maintained. At the time that I played the greens were slow needing a grass cut.

Great course but…

This is a great course, only problem is that we had to pay for 18 online when we was only allowed to play 9 at 6:00 pm tee time.

Great Value

Played late morning mid week with a very good Hot Deal rate. Old growth municipal golf course in very good condition, played North then West courses. General appearance was very clean and well maintained. A few fairways a bit dry given the typical hot weather this time of year. Greens are in great shape. Played all 18 holes just under 3 hours.

Ether than expected

I have played here before and the last time I played, about 6 months ago, the fairways were not very manicured. The greens were not in good shape and the rough was mostly dirt. What a difference this time. They were all better and got in a good round. Nice clean up. Keep it up.

Fun course

It was a pretty busy course when we went. I think it took us 5 hours to play the west and south courses.

The west course was well kept. I don’t recall a tee box or green in bad condition. Most of the holes are straight shots.

Some of the holes on the south course need the tee boxes re-sodded, but most of the greens were good with some rough spots.

It’s right next to the airport so if you don’t like seeing/hearing airplanes while you you play you may want to reconsider, but we enjoyed watching them. Overall we had a great time.

Rain has helped the course conditions since a few months back.

Great hot deal pricing. Greens were in good shape. Could use some grass manicuring and trimming around the greens and traps.
