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.

Great day.

Had a great day out on the course! I was paired with an older gentleman whose game was similar to mine, which really helped keep a good pace of play. The course itself was in excellent condition, and the staff were friendly and professional. The level of difficulty was just right—challenging but fair—and well worth the price. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking for a solid round of golf.

Great public course at Amelia. In fact excellent shape.

Greens tee boxes and fairways were in excellent shape. The tees might have been cut a little high but maybe because of all the rain. All in all the course was excellent. Greens weren’t fast but were pure and rolled fairly smooth. Played the west and south nines. Only thing I noticed not great was the rough on side of some fairways was really grown up and had weeds. Other than that is definitely play it again. Worth the drive up from Jax.

Fairway and greens in good shape

Fairway and greens were in good shape. They started off a little slow in the morning and sped up as they dried out. Course is nice and open with no real water hazards or danger of losing balls. Inteesnoff on time as a single and was stuck between two foursomes. Pace was about 4 and a half hours.

Good shape, fast pace mid-day weekday, solid conditions

I was a bit hesitant to book but got a great deal and it was well worth it. Greens are mostly in great shape and the rest of the course is in very good condition, plenty of run out if you hit the right parts of the course. Tricky to hole putts - have to center punch everything outside of 2 feet which was a bit odd. Otherwise a great value for money in the area.
