About 40 Steps

This is a great dive site and the cove makes for enjoyable casual diving. The entry point is easy and the site is generally sheltered from the seas. Directions are as follows: Coming from Boston, take 1A North. It will become North Shore Road, and then Lynnway. Continue to stay on Lynnway, wrapping around the coast, bearing right onto Nahant Road. From that intersection, the site will be on your left in 3.25 miles.
