Just started diving in New England waters this summer and loved it. This link is to a compilation of videos taken at Folly cove between July and October 2010.

Nice - I wish I could have that handy when tourists ask me - so what do you see down there? Where are you located? I have a nice place to photo that you might enjoy if you are local to Portsmouth, NH.
 
Nice video!
Looks like pretty good vis for a shore dive!
What Temps do you have in the summer time?
 
Thanks for the comments.

Oldflounder - I'm in the Boston area. I would be really interested in any spots you have that are good for photos.

T-Dog - I was measuring 64F at the surface and about 54 at 30fsw this summer. I haven't been deeper than 30fsw yet! I was fine with a 7mm wetsuit all summer. Got a little chilly on my last dives over Columbus weekend.

great video! Did my first dive at Folly Cove about a month ago since getting certified in July. That's been one of my favorite dives so far.
 
Good job! I love Folly Cove. First dived there the summer of 1980. Back then you could park your car there instead of hiking. There were a lot more urchins and less seaweed then. That vid makes me want to go back.
 
This is fairly representative of what we will see at Folly :) It reminds me my dives over there (I do miss New England and Cape Ann Diving !)
Thanks a lot for sharing this ! Keep posting videos ;o)
 
I watched the video.
I noticed at the very end a creature covered in sand..
Was that a torpedo ray????

I was zapped by one about that size in August of this year at Folly Cove.
No fooling!
It was a shocking experience. Did anyone notice that as well?

Let me know..

Yep, that is a Torpedo Ray buried in the sand. I got closer to it than I probably should have, it didn't seem to care.
