The Top 5 Golf Courses Near Jacksonville, FL

1. TPC Sawgrass

World-renowned, the Players Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass is an absolute must for all fans of the game, providing a professional experience that is rivaled by no other. Enjoy the spectacular views and test your skills against the very best there is to offer, most notably the infamous hole 17, with its island green being the cause of many a heartbreak. At TPC Sawgrass you’ll feel the prestigious golfing history in every root.

2. Amelia National Golf and Country Club

Few courses can boast a championship layout while being forgiving enough for all levels of play, and Amelia National does all of this while showcasing stunning natural beauty and luscious green fairways that really provide a mouth-watering experience. The scattering of sandy bunkers and undulating greens make every hole unique from tee to pin, and you’ll be thinking about your second round before you’ve even finished your first.

3. Slammer and Squire Golf Course at World Golf Village

Running alongside a wetland preservation ensures you’re only ever a tee-shot away from a natural marsh or crystal blue lake, and it’s just one of the features that make this course such a glorious feast for the eyes and the soul. With a focus on short game, its challenging par-3 holes will be all the talk when dining back at the fabulous clubhouse: though please always remember to drink responsibly, do not drink and drive, and any consumption of alcohol is only intended for adults of legal drinking age.

4. Omni Amelia Island Resort – Oak Marsh

Elevate your round of golf with a wonderful ocean breeze as it flurries over the wildly changing, yet beautiful landscape. As you’d expect from a fabulously designed coastal course, water comes into play on all but four of the 18 holes, with sand dunes and tidal marshes providing a rich yet challenging experience for golfers of all levels.

5. Jacksonville Beach Golf Club

First built in 1959 and newly revitalized, you’d think a round of golf on the beach couldn’t be more idyllic; however Jacksonville Beach Golf Club has taken that experience further. The par 72 course is immaculate, with friendly, supportive, and attentive staff, but don’t expect them to help you around the swift greens and punishing drop-offs.

We’re as proud of our unique golfing heritage as we are of our wonderful range of new and used vehicles. So, whether you’re visiting for a round of golf or transporting those golf clubs finds you in the market for extra trunk space, come and visit us at Mazda City today, and we’ll satisfy your every need!
