South/North at Fernandina Beach Municipal Golf Course
About
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.

Grinding on the back nine Photo submitted by Doug3188839 on 09/25/2012
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.
Improving
The rough is still a pile of raw dirt, some of the fairways are poor, some are not that bad, bunkers are getting to be more consistent, and greens are very good. Overall it shows significant improvement over last January, but it still has a long way to go to warrant paying more than $25-30 a round.
South Nine in Poor Condition
We walked 18 holes on the West and South nines. The par 37 West features three par 5 holes. It's in reasonable condition and is fairly open. The South Nine has too many places of very rough tee boxes and inconsistent turf.
Awesome setup
First ever time playing this course highly recommend playing here friend and I played yesterday March 3rd and it's a very well kept course conditions were nice little breezy but to be expected, layout is a bit challenging but foe the most part very fun to play. We will definitely play again
Winter Golf
Very nice muni. Enjoyable to play with good greens.
It's coming
Compared to 6 months ago it's slowly getting better. Needs more attention throughout and it will become a true gem
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.
