About The Amelia River Club

The Amelia River Club is a public course situated on Amelia Island in Fernandina Beach, Nassau County — the northernmost barrier island on Florida's Atlantic Coast. The course sits near the Amelia River on the island's western side, offering a very different character from the Atlantic-facing beach resort properties. The layout winds through natural coastal lowlands with marsh views, tidal creek glimpses, and the kind of dense subtropical vegetation found where salt marsh meets Florida scrub. Fernandina Beach itself is one of Florida's most historically rich towns, with a Victorian-era downtown and deep ties to the shrimping industry, adding a genuine local flavor that distinguishes it from more polished resort communities. The Amelia River Club provides an affordable public option on an island better known for expensive private and resort golf, giving budget-conscious golfers access to the island's unique coastal beauty.

History

The Amelia River Club was developed to provide a public golf option on Amelia Island, historically a destination better known for private clubs and resort golf. The course takes advantage of the island's western marsh-side geography rather than competing with beachfront properties, creating a quieter, more natural playing environment. Fernandina Beach's long history as a working waterfront town gives the surrounding area a character distinct from Florida's more commercialized resort islands.

Golfers visiting Amelia Island or Fernandina Beach who want an affordable public round with genuine coastal marsh scenery away from the island's pricier resort options.
Course Highlights
  • Amelia River and tidal marsh views create a distinctly wild coastal atmosphere unlike resort island courses

  • Affordable public pricing on Amelia Island, where most golf is private or resort-priced
