During proper weather conditions, this is a pleasant area to dive and explore.  All the sea life you would expect should be here.  Beginners will enjoy the easy entry and relative shallows, while the advanced divers of your group will desire to explore beyond outer rocks.

From Kennybunk Port, you can take Rt. 9 North for about 9.3 miles.  Turn right onto Bridge Road, and then in another mile, left on Mile Stretch Rd, bear right on Orcutt Blvd, and go to the end.   You can also take Rt. 208 East (Pool Road) out of Biddford for about 5.5 miles, bearing left onto Bridge Road, then left onto Mile Stretch Rd., bear right on Orcutt Blvd, and go to the end.

Biddeford Pool

I loved it. I found this in Jerry Shine's 'A shore diving guide to New England' and it was marked as one of his favorites ... spent the first half of the dive moving across the opening of the far left cove (nothing but sand) found everything interesting on the way back in along the rocks, lots of life, biggest lobster I've ever seen. The second half of the dive more than made up for the mistake at the beginning. I'm looking forward to diving it again this summer.
