New Hampshire

The first dive site in the best dive sites in the United States is New Hampshire. New Hampshire is one of the smaller states in the U.S, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of great diving sites to choose from. Duck Island, The Isles of Shoals, and The Lady of The Lake are some of New Hampshire’s most popular spots amongst local divers. Duck Island is famous for its regular seal encounters. These curios harbor and grey seals are usually juveniles and love being playful with the divers. When they get bored with the divers, they tend to go play with the nearby lobsters, ropes, and seaweed.

Beyond the seals, the Isle of Shoals is gorgeous and a must-see location for any diver visiting New Hampshire. The seafloor is covered in a beautiful green and red kelp beds. Rock formations, boulders, and overhangs create wonderful structures for eels, dogfish, crabs, and squid.
