Additional Information
English (Translate this text in English): This site seems to be known as Garbage Beach only to divers. It has an easy entry, and easy metered parking (so you will need quarters). Max depth at this site is 70’, visibility is 5’-15’. This site has Southwesterly exposure. There have been tropical fish sightings here in the summer, and a variety of nudibranchs in the winter. This can be a hazardous dive, challenges include strong currents, fishing line (make sure you have a knife/line cutter) and considerable boat traffic. Divers have found old bottles and tea cups at this site, so keep your eyes open for artifacts! Stay away from the Vineyard Ferry dock, it is best for divers to stay near the jetty or the pier.

Garbage Beach
By David Remsen , 10-05-2009
Poor name for a nice spot - This is a small sandy beach right in town off the seawall. It gets it's name because it's the only place on that part of the waterfront where ant flotsam would collect but really it's quite clean. Traditionally this is where the BU Marine Programme students would seine up small fish in their intro course. It's mostly Eel grass meadow off the beach. Typical poor visibility for Woods Hole.
