Thursday, September 15 NAI Global Convention Golf Tournament
Click HERE to register!
Tee off time: Approximately 7:30 AM
Price: $175 (includes tax and tournament fees, breakfast and lunch)
Optional Golf Club Rentals: $55
 

Details:
Get ready to spend the day on one of the most beautiful courses in the US - the Ocean Links Golf Course.

Winding along a coastal Atlantic dune ridge, Ocean Links #4, #5, #6, #15 and #16 provide golfers with five oceanfront golf holes. Ocean Links has 10 holes that feature lagoons and marsh wetlands, in addition to concluding with a par 3 whose green is placed strategically in the waters of Red Maple Lake. The course winds through six miles of the natural sand dunes and seaside terrain that make Amelia Island so special. It can be said that this course offers as much a nature tour as a round of golf. The course yardage of 6,300 is somewhat deceiving since small greens, narrow fairways and prevailing winds make the course play much longer.

At par 70, this 18-hole combination provides a challenge to golfers of all levels.
