Between the tranquil beaches of the Atlantic and the tidal marshes of the Intracoastal Waterway lies a secluded island paradise offering a resort and golf experience like no other.

Calm and competition live in harmony at Oak Marsh at Omnia Amelia Island Resort & Spa a classic Pete Dye-designed course built in 1972 and updated in 2025 by Beau Welling.

The 6,500-yard, par-72 course has 14 holes with water hazards and numerous bulk-headed greens.

Little Sandy at Omni Amelia Island Resort & Spa

Little Sandy’s short, 10-hole course encircles Red Maple Lake, providing a picturesque and efficient round perfect for those seeking a fun and memorable golfing experience on Amelia Island. Experienced golfers will still find a challenge at this approachable course, with the Beau Welling design featuring contoured greens and a dramatic island 10th hole that closes the round.

The Beau Welling design for Little Sandy was intentional to create an environment that promotes camaraderie and community. Playability and a fun atmosphere are emphasized to cater to families and those new to the game, but the course also offers strategic tests of golf and bold and contoured greens that will challenge more experienced golfers. One notable feature is the 10th hole that plays to an island green presenting a dramatic close to the round, even featuring a “hole-in-one” pin.
