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.

Nice little track, nice price

Enjoyed the day albeit the wind was coming from the north at 18mph continuously. Greens I’m sure will be better nice in summer. Staff very friendly. We played West/South nines.

Good value for money

You can find nicer courses if you want to pay a lot more money but this is a nice course for a great price. I liked playing at off peak times so I often finished in a little over 3 hours.

Not worth the money

Fairways were in horrible condition. Hard bare. Tee boxes were not raked care if. No grass in most of them. Greens were marginal. Appears no one cares about the upkeep. Felt like my money was wasted. My friend from out of town played and said terrible condition. Can get better deals locally for same money and nicer course.

The rough is too tall.

Challenging course but the rough coupled with all the trees make it a hard course to enjoy.

Course is in sad shape

Love the layout of this course but they have apparently let if go down hill a little. Greens are in nice shape and fairways were hit or miss. They just need a complete makeover for such a nice piece of property.

Public course in a sea of private courses

The staff was great. Very informative and friendly.

The practice range was in terrible shape.

We moved over to the practice green, only to find out the greens had been recently punched. (No warnings)

We moved to the first tee, and the tee boxes were in poor condition. All tee boxes were like this.

Of course, the rest of the tee boxes were like this.

The rough was thick, so stay in the fairway.

The weeds along the cart path were tall, so watch your step.

This could be a really nice course if the city would let the course keep some of the money, for the maintenance of the course.

Good time

Greens had been aerated recently, so putting was a challenge. Great course if you bring along a beginner and/or want to work on your game a little. No one pushing/rushing you. Great price for a simple round of golf. FRIENDLY STAFF. Very welcoming and helpful.

Very challenging

Couple greens need some work but they were lightning fast. Very narrow on a lot of holes. Lots of doglegs and all about position off the tee. Not a course for high handicappers. Great value and beautiful layout. Had fun but took a beating!
