Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Great Island Commons
What a beautiful location. Even if you don’t intend to dive, it is worth the dive to visit this park. The coast is rocky and the entry is easy. What more could you want?!
Coming into Portsmouth from the South on 1A about .5 mile North of Foyes Corner, turn right on 1B (Wentworth Rd.) In 1.84 miles, turn right into the Great Island Commons.

This site is only good for getting wet! The sand gives way to eel grass, then to some kelp (but not much). Visibility usually sucks (<5 ft), and if you get too far out, the river / tide currents can raise hell (but you would have to swim way out there). No worries about boats (unless you get more than 150 yards out). Some tube worms in silt, some lobster (imagine that), and not much else.
