Safe Harbor Sandusky

10/06/2026

We’re excited to share that the ACOE has commenced dredging to ease travel in our harbor!

Dredging is underway at Sandusky Harbor, supporting safe navigation, the local economy and beneficial use of sediment for beach nourishment. 🚢🌊

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Buffalo District, is completing a $628,000 project to remove approximately 109,000 cubic yards of sediment from the Moseley and Straight Channels.

The work helps maintain safe access for commercial vessels, recreational boaters and other Lake Erie harbor users.

Project highlights:
✅ Supports a harbor with more than $322 million in annual economic impact
✅ Supports 864 jobs and 2.6 million tons of cargo handled in 2023
✅ Places 100,000 cubic yards of sediment at a nearshore site to support local beach nourishment
✅ Scheduled for completion by Nov. 1

Boaters should use caution near active dredging equipment and maintain a safe distance from work areas.

Remarkable views and great company at Safe Harbor Sandusky. There is no better way to end the day than with our best friend by our side and a golden sunset painting the sky.

Thanks to our friends at Burdue's Quality Landscaping, we now have a flowerbed longer than the length of a football field. It will soon be filled with hundreds of petunias and solar lights to illuminate our waterfront walkway.
