Dive Overview: Fort Stark is a great intro dive to New England, as soon as you enter the rocks are covered with rockweed, look in between the weed and you’ll find hundreds off common periwinkles, blue crabs and flounders. Continue diving and you’ll see a small wall and boulders covered with kelp. Among the kelp are lobsters and hermit crabs and if you’re lucky you can find lumpfish here especially during spring. You can also see some nudibranchs here during the winter months. If you keep diving a bit deeper (+15ft) then you’ll see plenty of eelgrass full of live as well. Fort Stark is a very shallow dives, best depth is 15 to 25ft. It can be dived during all tides but is best at high tide as it gets almost too shallow during low tides.
Experience: This is a great dive for new divers, little current and shallow depth.
