Just north of the Jacksonville Airport, Fernandina Beach Golf Club offers three 18-hole courses that are conveniently located within distance of both Jacksonville and the beach. There are three distinct nines at the club that create three different 18-hole combinations. The West/South combination is the tournament course at Fernandina Beach Golf Club. The West nine is long and there is a challenging par-5 that is one of the most difficult on the golf course. The South nine features an abundance of trees and water hazards, putting a heavier emphasis on accuracy rather than distance in scoring well. The golf course is also considered a perfect example of scenic Florida golf with native foliage and wildlife throughout.

Grass is growing sgsin

Fairways and tee boxes were in great shape. Lots of areas do need immediate cutting due to recent rains and fertilizer use. Greens a little bumpy due to recent treatment.

Great municipal track

Fernandina Beach is great shape. Played the West and south nines, the west side had recently been punched, but for the most part had a really good roll, fairways were in great shape and the tee boxes too. The south course was in the best shape since I played their last time. Each green was in great shape along with numerous fairways and tees.I only wish I could’ve finished with a better score to cap off the round. Not the course’s fault but my own.. the practice screen was closed due to renovation, but I’m sure it’ll be in great shape soon. Keep up the great work.

Surprisingly good

Haven’t played here in a while because it was in poor shape for so long. Booked it cause I needed a quick round in before a golf trip. Course was in very good shape. Greens were curing from a recent punching ,but rolled good. It’s good to see the progress Agro is making.

If you haven’t played FB recently you should check it out.

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.
