Windy Harbor Golf Club is a military golf course located at the Mayport Naval Station, it was formerly known as the Mayport Golf Club. The seaside course now takes its name from the blustery ocean breezes that sweep through the back nine. The golf course is narrow with tree-lined fairways and large, fast greens that are slightly sloped. There is also a defined cut of rough beside every fairway. Greenside bunkers and water hazards that come into play on nearly every hole make the course challenging for players of all abilities. Windy Harbor Golf Club also has practice facilities for golfers to use that include a driving range with grass and carpeted practice tees, a practice sand trap, and a large putting green.

Best value anywhere.

For the price that I paid for the round and the beauty of the course, I have not seen any other course that can beat Mayport.

Overall a good day. The weather has not yet been consistently hot/warm enough to allow grasses to germinate and grow so greens and tee boxes are a bit on the choppy side and a biti inconsistent green speeds. But overall it’s aways a good time and an opportunity to meet some new people. In this case however I was paired up with someone I had played with before so that was fun.

Always windy

The Windy Harbor golf course if a friendly layout. The back nine seems to always be affected by a generous wind off of the ocean.
The conditions are fair as it is winter. The pace of play can be uneven depending on the group in front of you.

Always Windy

Windy Harbor fits the bill as a municipal type course. The back nine is always a challenge as the course deserves its name. Holes play long accordingly. Fairways a generous so the average golfer will enjoy the course.

First Time Playing

Great Deal

Play was quick just under four hours. Greens rolled true. Large fairways kept ball in play but course was still challenging with wind and water hazards. Some ground under repairs but was adequately marked.

Great value as we ordered hotdogs, Gatoraid and chips for our foursome and it was less than $20. Cart hostess was friendly and helpful.

Definitely worth getting your MWR card. Will be playing again soon.
