Almost 20 years ago, the Federal Government appropriated $26.9M to remediate the wave power caused by breakers slamming off the S**o River north jetty and scouring Camp Ellis Beach. Let it be known that on June 9, 2026, Mohawk Construction's work barge started to move rocks on the jetty to accommodate a 750-foot breakwater that will run parallel to the shoreline, 1500 feet out. The cost for the project is now $45M.

We will be watching closely and await the first transport of rocks to start the construction of the spur jetty. UNE gathered some wave pressure data prior to the start of construction and we are anxious to learn how effective the spur will be. Let this be the start of something good.

More updates to come.

Camp Ellis HarborFest is back this summer with family-friendly waterfront activities, fireworks, music, and great local food!

Join us as we celebrate S**o’s historic working coastline and the community’s shoreline restoration efforts.

To kick off the festivities, we’ll gather in the evening on Saturday, Aug. 8, for live music at Huot’s Seafood Restaurant and fireworks on the river.

Then, on Sunday, Aug. 9, the festival hits the pier with live performances, games, delicious food, and so much more.

This festival is successful each year thanks to our hardworking team of community volunteers. If you’d like to get involved to help with this year’s festival, let us know today by filling out the form at sacomaine.org/harborfestvolunteers.
