At Amelia Island Plantation, beauty and playability blend magnificently in a 72-hole golfer's paradise that includes seven holes directly on the ocean available only to members and guests of the resort (you must stay here to play here).

Amelia Island Plantation

Ocean Links, an innovative design by Pete Dye and Bobby Weed with 5 holes directly on the ocean, takes full advantage of testy sea breezes, rolling dunes and undulating greens to form Florida's most exciting-to-play golf holes.

Amelia Island Plantation

Oak Marsh is another of Pete Dye's masterpieces.  Tight fairways and smallish greens place a premium on accuracy and strategy.  There are fourteen holes with water hazards and numerous bulkhead greens as well as a variety of bunkers, strategically placed throughout the course to add to the challenge.

Amelia Island Plantation

Long Point, designed by Tom Fazio, is meticulously carved from the dunes and marshlands on this 1,350 acre resort.  Golfers are treated to an amazing trek through a preserved wilderness area and are required to hit a wide variety of shots ranging from over water and marshlands to ones aimed at narrow, tree-lined fairways.

Amelia Island Plantation

Royal Amelia is renowned as one of the best-conditioned courses in the area with incredibly smooth TifEagle greens, sculpted around a forest of majestic live oaks, sabal palms, pines and wax myrtles. This par 72 track is always in pristine shape with well-manicured rolling fairways, smooth bunkers and greens that challenge all skill levels.
