Cashes Ledge is located in the Gulf of Maine, roughly 80 miles due east of Cape Ann, Massachusetts. The peak of this mountain, Ammen Rock, rises to within 40 feet of the surface– towering above the deep, muddy basins and boulder strewn seafloor surrounding the ledge. The unusual geography combined with the kelp forest and the unique oceanographic conditions of Cashes Ledge creates ideal conditions for marine wildlife, from invertebrates to North Atlantic right whales.
