200' Beach dive in RI

[AttitudeAdjuster]

I'm looking for the name and location of a place where it is possible to hit 200' from the shore. I understand it to be Castle (something) can anyone help.
Thanks

Castle Hill. its in newport and its not what i would call a beach dive..
parking is a issue, as well as access, its kinda a hike in espically with the gear you need for such a dive

Oh...a typical RI dive. No parking and nasty access!


EDITED: Excuse me all of you RI'ers! I was thinking more of Mass. - specifically Cape Anne.

How long of a swim for these depths?!?!? What's the scoop on the topography?

If I recall you only hit about 180.

depending on the tide, and where exctaly you are, you can break 200

it steps down pretty fast there
its a longet walk to ghet there than a swim once your in the water
and its right at the enterance of the bay. so watch the tides, and currents

Would access be easier by staying at one of the Inns? I have no clue as to the location.

What are you interested in, the depth or the dive?

What is there to see at this site?

Can I recommend The Sommes Sound in Acadia Ntl Park in Main.

What yall think?

Soggy, you should check it out..
its a great dive, its not a sheer wall so you can work a depth line and its a good dive for any level of diver, just stay within your personal limits..
its a ruged bottom structure. simmilar to what you see above the water there, and across the channel in jamestown..
basically take weathell, and make it way better
