About this site
Sandy Cove offers a sheltered dive site with kelp forests and rocky reefs. The clear Atlantic waters host colorful sponges, sea stars, and shy octopus. Gentle currents make it ideal for beginners. Look for playful seals and occasional rays gliding over the sandy patches. Depths range from 5 to 18 meters, with boulders creating swim-throughs. Cold water but rewarding for macro life. Best dived in calm conditions.
