About this site
Folly Cove is an intermediate shore dive in New England, entered from the beach at the head of a cove. Depths reach 75 feet (23 metres) on the left side at the mouth of the cove and 50 feet (15 metres) on the right.
The two sides are quite different. The left is a sheer rock wall covered with frilled anemones, urchins and sea cucumbers, while the right side is a boulder-strewn pasture. The bottom in between is mainly sand, with one rock outcropping in the middle.
North and northeast winds make the dive challenging, because the cove channels powerful swells up to the beach and limits visibility.
