Another good area for lobster, Magnolia Rocks can be a great dive once you get past the rocky entry.  You can descend down to about 45 feet where you'll find boulders, sand and crevasses.  Perfect for exploration! Lots of lobsters, too close to rocks for boats to drop their pots...large stripers, not afraid of you...easy to spear..delicious..cold and when algae bloom, no vis..but can get dinner there in 15 minutes

At the end of SR 128 in Cape Ann, turn right on SR 127A (Cross Street), and then bear left onto SR 127 South.   In 1.3 miles, you will cross a bridge.  In another 2.3 miles, turn left onto Magnolia Ave.  In .6 miles, turn left onto Raymond/Norman.  In 300 yards, turn right onto Lexington Ave. and go to the end.

Magnolia Rocks

Great dive. Looking to see wolf eels, sand sharks or stripers, this is the place. Lots of lobsters. I have even seen what is still unidentifiable, but looked like a Porbeagle shark.  Probably way off base, but it was not a sand shark... All in all, out of the 6 dive sites I frequent in the Cape Anne area, this is my favorite.
