We have golf packages with accommodations ranging from quiet B&B’s to luxury resorts to oceanfront hotels. Here’s a sneak peek at all 6 island courses to whet your golfing appetite.

1. Amelia River Club

Amelia River Club is a Tom Jackson-designed course that offers 18 holes of smooth TifEagle greens all in a natural setting lined with ancient oaks, palmettos, and southern pines. Jackson took full advantage of what nature laid before him, utilizing both water and land. The signature 17th hole is a par 3 that requires a precise shot over water to reach its island green.

2. Fernandina Beach Golf Club

“Beautiful course and the best golf value on the island” perfectly describes the Fernandina Beach Golf Club. Featuring 27 holes of public golf, a practice range, and putting greens, each of the three nine-hole layouts offers generous fairways, plenty of native foliage, and impeccable greens.

3. The Golf Club of Amelia Island

Located on the property at The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island, The Golf Club of Amelia Island is a Mark McCumber/Gene Littler course design with water that comes into play on 13 of its 18 holes. Winding through woods with the Atlantic Ocean nearby, the course features moss-draped oaks all along the front nine and rolling marshes on the back.

4. Oak Marsh at Omni Amelia Island Resort

Oak Marsh Golf Course is another classic Pete Dye-designed course stretching 6,500 yards at par 72 and featuring tight fairways, bulkheads, and seemingly tiny greens that make full use of meandering creeks and marshland. Located on the property of Omni Amelia Island Resort & Spa, Oak Marsh is a fun course to play with outstanding scenery. The recent renovation led by Beau Welling was completed in 2025 and was thoughtfully planned to protect the architectural feel of Pete Dye’s original creation.

Tee times at Oak Marsh Golf Course are exclusively available for registered guests of Omni Amelia Island Resort & Spa and The Villas of Amelia Island, and golf members of The Amelia Island Club.

5. Little Sandy at Omni Amelia Island Resort

Little Sandy features 10 holes circling Red Maple Lake ranging from 30 to 125 yards, plus an 18-hole putting course. Designed by Beau Welling, the scenic course winds through an oak marsh and offers fun for all skill levels, from beginners and families to experienced golfers looking for a strategic challenge.

6. Long Point Golf Course

Guests of Omni Amelia Island Resort have access to play Long Point, a member-only private golf course within the resort. Named one of the top twenty courses in Florida, Long Point features Tom Fazio at his best in three distinct environments – marshes, thick forests, and stunning ocean dunes.
