Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Hoop Pole Cove
Hoop Pole Cove is known for its great lobstering. With depths no more than 40 feet, you'll find lots of nooks and crannies in the rocky bottom, a favorite habitat of our favorite crustation.
At the intersection of SR 127 and SR127A in Rockport (NE Cape Ann), continue North for 1.4 miles, turn right onto Phillips Ave, and continue further for another .43 miles.

Great site for diving, so we have been here several times. It's hit or miss with the current and the wave height which can make for a difficult entry & exit. The current tends to read differently below the surface. Good place for small lobsters; I have never seen any over 3lbs here. Local fishermen on shore and on the boats have never given us a problem. Lots of lobster traps to navigate around. Locals are very friendly, and a new Dunkin Doughnuts was just built right up the street!
