About

Type Public/Municipal
Par 72
Length 7001 yards
Slope 118
Rating 72.6

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.

Just go somewhere else

For the price, the course is in pretty rough conditions. Being from the north I’m very used to really poor winter conditions, but a lot of my northern courses are in far better condition, and nowhere near the price. Would not recommend.

I Would not play here for free

Went to the “range” and their card reader was dead. So no balls. Was told to play South and then North. The South was by far the worst 9 holes I’ve ever experienced. Fairways looked like they never are taken care of. The greens were filled with sand. Would have been a better option to chip on the green than to put. North was better kept but the greens were still not in good shape. I do not plan to ever play here again.

Better than before

I can honestly say that the course was way better than I last remember. It has been a while since I last played and my partner and I both said we would never come play this cow pasture. Congrats to the greenskeeper and staff for an amazing round of golf.
