Sure just check the fine manual 'man find' on howto restrict
'find' to descend only how deep you want.

Good luck

Here's another quick solution (besides find) if you can deal with ls -l

ls -l | grep '^d'

find . \! -name . -prune -type d -print

Or with most shells:

printf '%s\n' */

With zsh:

print -rl -- *(/)

find . -type d -maxdepth 1

Seems a little easier.

Neither of those would list the dot-directories. How about good ol'
ls(1)...

ls -d */ # just ordinary directories
ls -d .*/ # just dot-directories
ls -d .*/ */ # both

Add `1' (one) to the options (ls -d1) if you need a single column.
