Jacksonville International Airport lies just thirty miles to the south, making Fernandina Beach Golf Club an effortless escape from the urban corridor into Florida's northernmost barrier island. The drive north on A1A traces the Intracoastal Waterway before crossing onto Amelia Island, where the landscape shifts to salt marsh and maritime oak. Within forty minutes of wheels-down, the road delivers you to this understated municipal gem tucked along the island's western shore, where the Amelia River glimmers beyond the fairways and the pace slows to match the tides.
