Overview
Atlantic Beach Country Club (formerly known as the Selva Marina Country Club until 2014) was designed by Ed Seay and debuted in 1958. Built to exist in congruence with existing native ecology, gentle fairways are routed over existing undulations and feature large bunkers flanked with tall grasses. Since 2007, the club has undergone two significant renovations. The first led by Bobby Weed in 2007 added length and changed grasses, while the second in 2014 headed by Erik Larsen, formerly of Arnold Palmer’s design company, entailed a complete redevelopment focused on adding and redoing bunkers, as well as runoff areas with the goal of creating a more natural and dunesy feel to the course. Now, tight driving windows are guarded by long, snaking waste areas that appear to shrink fairways, and mis-hit iron shots will likely find the penal, tightly mown collection areas just off of putting surfaces.

Review
“Fun test of Golf. Tight, well bunkered and challenging if the wind is blowing. Has a good variation of holes as well as long and short par 3s. Knowing where to hit it is key. Greens are running at a 12 and slick. One you should play if in Jacksonville. Good amenities. The only distraction from the aesthetics is the houses along the course. Really good redesign."

“A small piece of property in which the course was built around a canal. Firm and fast fairways and fast greens."

“Course has great bunkering that is very strategic. Very firm and fast with wonderful greens. Greens had lots of movement and require accurate approach shots. Great three finishing holes. A course you would not get tired playing !!"

“It's far better than Selva Marina (the previous course at this location), yet is squeezed in-between too many houses. This makes the course very tight. It rolls fast and is very firm, which gives it a few extra points in the fun category!"

“This is wonderful family club with lots of kids. The course had been used for the Web.Com tour championship. It is well designed and has three outstanding finishing holes."
