you'll get any thing but salty diving the this river. I wouldn't even bother to make this a detour unless you are into finding tires and what nots up by Lowell any way. Down by where it enters into the ocean a few divers and swimmers have been lost never to be seen again.

yea, it gets pretty bad, i live right near that river and the current is extremely strong.. if you wana dive in a river, maybe you'd be intrested in the Parker River, and diving in the mouth before it enters plum island sound, maybe u could do a drift dive.

I have fewer dive plans than I'd like through Labor Day. I'm just west of Kennebunk Me, will go south as far as seacoast NH.
