Haviland Pond
Why dive here
With 35+ marine species recorded in the area - including nurse sharks - Haviland Pond offers some of New England's richest shore diving. Water ranges 4-19°C, warmest July, August, September.
Haviland Pond is a freshwater dive that’s good for shaking off the rust or practicing skills. You’ll find a few sunken boats and other bits of debris to explore, along with the usual freshwater species like bass and sunfish. Visibility can drop quickly if the bottom gets stirred up, so it's a site best enjoyed by divers comfortable in lower vis.
