Middletown Scuba - New England
Middletown Scuba in New England often feels more like a community hub than just a dive shop. We appreciate their focus on getting local divers out to explore the area's surprisingly varied cold-water sites, especially the myriad wrecks scattered across Rhode Island Sound. If you're keen to log some dives closer to home and don't mind pulling on a 7mm or drysuit, they’re a solid choice for guided trips and sorting out your gear needs. They’ve built a reputation for practical training too, making it a good spot to get certified without the hassle of a big resort operation.
