About Mill Cove Beach
Mill Cove Beach is a straightforward shore dive with an easy beach entry and a shallow sand-to-rock bottom that suits newer divers. The route stays simple and relaxed, but the site can get busy in summer because it is also a public beach. Lobsters are a common shallow-water sighting in warmer months, so it rewards slow, careful scanning near the bottom.
