The following books are supposed to be excellent resources for New England
dive site information:

Diver's Guide to Cape Ann -- Calhoun
Beneath the Waters of Mass Bay -- Ferris
Exploring the Waters of Cape Cod -- Ferris

I'm a brand new diver, but if you have other questions about the area,
I'll do my best to help you out.

dive, check out Folley Cove just past Rockport. Cape Cod offers clear,
cold water, but almost nothing to see except sand.

The best Boston Area Dive Locations are in Florida...

Unless you like cold water with 8 ft max visibility.

Don --

Now that's funny. I've been told that Florida diving is strictly
for people who can't master the skills necessary to dive safely in
New England waters.

I guess its all in how you look at it.
