Loblolly Cove - New England

Loblolly Cove might not grab headlines, but for new divers in New England, it's a solid start. Maximum depth is a gentle 10 meters, making it ideal for shaking off the rust or getting comfortable in cold water. We’ve found plenty of kelp forests here, swaying gently with the surge, and if you look closely among the rocks, you'll spot sculpins hunkering down and small crabs scuttling past. Visibility can be a bit variable, as with most New England shore dives, so we always suggest checking local reports, but on a good day, it’s a calm, easy dive for beginners.
