South Shore Neptunes Come dive with us! The club promotes safe scuba diving, snorkeling, underwater sports. Today the club promotes the sport of scuba diving in the Boston area.

The South Shore Neptunes was founded on July 5, 1955 by a group of enthusiastic scuba divers and first met in the basement of a home in the town of Holbrook, MA. The South Shore Neptunes was incorporated in Massachusetts on July 5, 1962. Over the years, the club has been involved with many different aspects of diving. This includes the founding of other organizations that members of the Neptunes have started including The Quincy Underwater Recovery Team, The Bay State Council of Divers and The Quincy Underwater Rugby Team (Narwhals). We have regular monthly meetings and organize club dives, dive charters, dive trips and social events for our members. The Neptunes have assisted local police and the US Coast Guard with underwater recovery missions through the Quincy Underwater Recovery Team. We monitor beach access and new laws affecting scuba divers in Massachusetts through The Bay State Council of Divers. In 1978, Neptune members were the first to play Underwater Rugby in the United States and the first US team to go to the Underwater Rugby World Championships in Denmark in 1999. We support our local dive shops and other charitable organizations like the TRP, which supports the reintegration of our veterans. Come join us and see what we are all about!

We completed our last scheduled dive today. Most of the divers in our group did all 16 dives. We started today with a dive at the wreck El Aguila a cargo ship that was intentionally sunk, I went to 102 ft. It’s been a while since I was that deep. We were able to pe*****te the wreck on the bow and stern.

We were on the Nellie and I’ve included in the pictures a list of the dive sites we went to

The highlight of the day was swimming with a pod of dolphins on the way back from the wreck. The captain dropped us in at 2 different spots to see the dolphins.

What an Awesome way to end a great week of diving

South shore Neptunes in Roatan

13 dives down and 3 more to go tomorrow
It’s rained twice at night and once during the day for about 5 minutes. We’re having a great time.
I don’t want to mention this but a certain Sokol got mixed up underwater and followed the wrong group twice on the same dive. Only causality so far is Paul, he stabbed himself in the foot changing his camera batteries. We saw 3 Horse fish and quite a few shell monkies (turtles).

Dive master stopped checking air during the first dive, and we’ve all made it back to the boat in the red numerous times. We’ve stretched our 50 minute dives to about 70 minutes.

I did my first night dive in about 30 years. Had an awesome dive. Rob and I touched a tiger tail sea cucumber.

Spotted a moray and a turtle on the night dive

We just watched a fire show on the beach
Sokol got dragged into last nights entertainment

I had reservations about coming back to Roatan after my dive with A K in December. I would gladly come back to the Mayan Princess. Tommy

Neptune Dive - October 11, 2026. Story and photo by Evan Bodell
We started the day by meeting Angelo Correnti and Doug Eaton at the clubhouse to decide on a dive location. Due to engine trouble, we opted for a shore dive and settled on Peggotty Beach, Scituate.

Angelo and Doug headed over to McKay’s for breakfast while we prepared for the dive. We entered from shore and made our way toward Second Cliff, Scituate.

Visibility was approximately 15 feet before we stirred up the bottom. We zigzagged along the bottom, catching five keeper lobsters. Most of the lobsters we encountered were too small, while the larger ones were carrying eggs.

Total dive time was 80 minutes, with a maximum depth of 19 feet. Water temperature was 54°F.

We exited the water just before high tide.

Neptune Dive - Saturday September 12, 2026. Story and Photos by Sokol Prifti. Todd Alger, Joe Kilcommons and I left the dock around 8:15 am and the wind was still blowing. When we arrived at the Graves Lighthouse, we met Angelo Correnti's and Tommy Lo’s boats with their dive crews, altogether 10 divers (Angelo, Barry and two others (I couldn’t recognize them from the distance) and Tommy Lo’s boat had Ken Hayes and a new member, Justin Casanova (I think).
Water was warm, 62 degrees and visibility was good!
Underwater, I crossed Ken Hayes and Justin Casanova multiple times and I took a picture!
On Joe Kilcommon's boat, Todd went in first and came up last he had us a little worried (he’s good with air consumption)!
The second dive was at Martin’s Ledge which was a little colder but very good visibility!
I was a very exciting day for everyone!
