Company description Cape Ann Divers offers an extraordinary experience for divers of all levels. We are strategically located near all diving areas in Gloucester and Rockport, and there are many to choose from. Cape Ann offers world class diving just 30 miles north of Boston. The visibility and sea life variety are superb. There are also a number of shipwrecks, wall dives and rocky reefs just off our shore.
We own and operate 2 dive boats. The 45 foot Cape Ann Diver II (the largest dive boat in New England) and the 31 foot Cape Ann Diver take groups of 2 to 20 divers to some of New England`s best offshore dive sites. Each has heated cabins and galleys, and the ``Diver II`` has a bathroom and a hot shower on deck! We will run a boat with as few as 2 people!
Every Saturday and Sunday at 10:00 am, June through August, we offer free guided shore dives. A staff member from our store will accompany you to the beach, show you where to park, and help to pair you up with other participants. Our staff member will be happy to point out the dive sites best features. This is a great way to get to see new dive sites and gain experience. No reservations are needed, just show up with gear or rent from us.
Our Dive Guide will not enter the water with you. You may arrange for a private Divemaster to dive with you for a fee if one is available. Reservations are strongly recommended. Payments are made directly to the Divemaster.
We pick the dive site each morning based on the weather. We leave the store at 10:00 am. Depending on whether you do one or two dives, you will usually finish by 2:30 pm or 3:00 pm.
Come to the store by 9:30 if you have all your gear. You will fill out a waiver, show us your certification card and log book*. If you`d like to rent (Rental Rates) from us we recommend being here by 8:00 am to try on the equipment. This way you won`t feel rushed. We leave the store promptly at 10:00 am.
