Jacksonville weather encourages golfing for both the individual sports player and the professional sports tournaments. Winters are mild and summers, while hot, have less humidity than coastal areas further south.
Two golf resorts located just minutes from downtown Jacksonville are the Sawgrass Marriot and the Ponte Verda Inn and Club. The Sawgrass Marriot hosts many professional events and you will need to schedule your stay according to your personal interests. If you wish to watch professional players, stay during an event, or if you want to play on a professional course, plan to stay when an event is not taking place. The hotel is family friendly and just a short walk from the beach.
The Ponte Verda Inn and Club has two 18-hole courses, also on the beach. It has facilities for wedding and family reunions, and is well-respected in the community of Jacksonville beach resorts.
