The North Jetty Revetment Improvements Project is in its final lap as crews prepare for landscaping and site restoration.  

The project contractor, Shoreline Foundation, Inc. (SFI),  has largely completed  structure improvements along a  210-foot section of the north jetty.   The sidewalk and railings are complete, and large granite boulders used as protective armor stone are also in place. The webcam will be reinstalled to a safer location on the north side of the jetty.

The North Jetty project began in November. The completed work includes 210 feet of new revetment structure, seawalls and a concrete sidewalk deck along portions of the jetty damaged by storms. Project completion is targeted for July.  Public access to the north jetty is unavailable as this is  a fenced-off  "hard hat" construction site.  The jetty improvements are part of the District’s responsibility to maintain inlet infrastructure, navigation, and enhance public safety.

Note: The project is located within Sebastian Inlet State Park, but the Sebastian Inlet District is the responsible entity.  

Stay tuned for updates.
