Why dive here
With 35+ marine species recorded in the area - including nurse sharks - Brownstone Exploration and Discovery Park offers some of New England's richest diving.
Brownstone is a flooded quarry, a spot we've found ourselves at more than once for a quick local dive. It’s pretty straightforward, a freshwater site with various sunken objects scattered around for navigation and exploration. Think old boats, aircraft parts, and even some vehicles. Visibility can vary, but it's a solid choice for skill practice or just getting some bottom time in New England without a long drive.
