# Ellsworth (US ESR)

**UN/LOCODE:** US ESR  
**Country:** United States  
**Water Body:** North Atlantic Ocean  
**Harbor Size:** Very Small  
**Harbor Type:** River (Natural)  
**GPS:** 44.5500, -68.4167

Controlling depths of roughly 5 feet (about 1.5 m) in the dredged Union River channel tell the whole story: Ellsworth handles pleasure craft, not commercial cargo. There are no container terminals, cargo wharves or customs facilities here, and no scheduled waterborne freight traffic. Once ranked among the world's leading lumber-export harbours in the mid-1800s, the town now relies on the deep-water ports of Searsport and Portland for any seaborne shipment. For freight planning, Ellsworth has limited commercial relevance.
