Fort Getty and Fort Wetherill, Jamestown, RI - September 6th-8th, 2024
Come camping at Fort Getty and diving at Fort Wetherill with Aquatic Specialties!
Fort Getty is located in Jamestown, Rhode Island, and was a military fort from 1900 through World War II before it was opened up as a park and campground for the public. Just around the corner is Fort Wetherill, which dates back to the early 18th century and was decomissioned in 1946 following World War II. This location offers something for beginner and advanced divers as two of the dive locations are in protected coves, and the third dive site follows a sharp wall, rich with life, that drops to depths close to 100ft! You can expect to see native lobsters, blue crabs, and squids as well as tropical fish that get caught in the Gulf Stream in the Fall!
