Why dive here
With 35+ marine species recorded in the area - including nurse sharks - Larchmont offers some of New England's richest diving. Water ranges 4-19°C, warmest July, August, September.
Larchmont in New England offers straightforward boat diving, usually accessed from local charters. Divers can expect to find a mix of rocky seafloor and some scattered artificial structure, often attracting species like lobsters and conger eels. It’s a good spot for divers looking for easy access and consistent, if not spectacular, local marine life. We'd suggest it for divers comfortable with colder water and moderate visibility, especially those keen on macro photography or just getting some bottom time.
Safety Notes
Cold water this month (avg 15°C). Drysuit or thick wetsuit (7mm+) recommended.
