Newport & Jamestown harbors.
We used to dive there winters for bottles.
You might get a few dives in before the boating season really starts.

I live in Jamestown and there is alot of old stuff in Jamestown and Newport Harbors as pointed out by 2ThDiver. Just be forewarned that there is a very active Archaeological Presence in the Newport area. If you are even seen walking into the water with a detector, there are those who will think nothing of calling the Harbormaster, DEM and the Historical Preservation Commission to report you.
The way the law reads(right or wrong) is that anything that has lain abandoned on the sea bottom in State waters for more than 10 years(yes 10 years) is property of the state and cannot be disturbed.
