South/North is one of three golf courses at Fernandina Beach Golf Club. The facility is home to three distinct nines that form three different 18-hole combinations. Winding through thick forests of oaks and pines, Fernandina Beach Golf Club's South/North course offers a glimpse at native Florida wildlife. The South nine depends more on accuracy rather than distance while the north nine, the shortest in length of the three, features undulating greens. Water hazards also come into play throughout the golf course. Fernandina Beach's 27 unique holes are made even more appealing by the affordable rates and convenient proximity to Jacksonville and the beach.

The course is still in winter mode but challenging and fun. This is my fifth time playing… so my return is a bit of an endorsement as to the enjoyment factor.

Good to get back in the groove

Played with my wife. 11 am tee time weekday not crowded. Great new carts. Pace was very good. Some bare areas due to winter weather. Still good place to warm up and price is decent

Disappointing.

Could be much better . There have been recent improvements but doesn’t justify current green fees relative to local options

Great potential

The west and north courses were in pretty good shape. The south course needs time. South just needs to shut down so it can fully bounce back. I grew up playing these courses, so I know they can be great. You can see the great design and potential as you play, they just need some TLC. Staff are great and the range is top of the line.

Struggling

I just arrived from Canada and wanted to get some practice before the round. Yes they had a top tracer but I likely have never paid that much per ball anywhere/ anytime. I was scrambling to my tee as I only had 30 minutes.

Ended up playing alone as my group had left early as there was no starter and the pro shop had no control.

The tees were awful and the fairways worse.

No real value for money. They only exist as they are the lowest priced alternative on the island.
