Amelia Island’s inviting private club, is the perfect place to enjoy a round of golf, enhance your tennis game, unwind at our intimate beach club, or gather with friends at the clubhouse.

Exhilarating play for all levels of golfers combined with amazing year-round weather and gentle breezes off the Atlantic capture the experience at The Golf Club of Amelia Island, one of the best-renowned golf clubs in the Fernandina Beach area.

Designed by PGA Tour veteran Mark McCumber and legendary golfer Gene Littler in 1987, this award-winning 18-hole, par 72 golf course has been recognized worldwide as one of the Top Golf Resorts by Condé Nast Traveler and as one of the Best Places to Play by Golf Digest.

Lush and meticulously manicured, challenging but never frustrating, the championship course’s diverse layout with stands of moss-draped century oaks guarding the front nine and rolling marshes and more water on the back nine reward patience and good decision-making. Helping you to navigate the course are carts equipped with GPS and a friendly, experienced staff willing to make your experience memorable and unique. These links provide a sense of pride, unmatched by other golf courses near Fernandina Beach.
