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.

Fun course with potential

This is a fun course with a lot of potential. They do seem to be working on some things (tee boxes) but the fairways are decent and the greens do play fairly true and not bumpy like other courses for the same value. Looking forward to the TopTracer range to open soon! Will definitely be going back.

Very unfriendly pro shop & poor rental clubs

Very, very unfriendly guys in the pro shop x2. No smiles, no welcome & absolute minimum of information given and only on request. The rental clubs are very old and poor quality - you get what you pay for here (v Amelia River which is twice the money but well worth it) although good manners should be free. The course needs work......

OK, but

The course always seems to have one of its three 9 hole segments closed. Why, I have no idea. The overall course is up and down on grass and dirt on the tee boxes, fairways and greens. We try not to play it too often, but always want to just to see if its better than last time - it's not. Sorry, no blame on the staff, etc, because we all know it's a funding issue. The course needs water, needs grass, and a cart attendant, cart girl, and ranger.
