- The Graveyard of the Atlantic gets its name from the estimated 2000 shipwrecks scattered along the North Carolina coastline. Consistently voted #1 Wreck Diving in North America by Scuba Diving magazine's Readers' Poll, many of these historic vessels are accessible to divers.
Some of the most impressive wrecks are the World War II casualties - vessels fallen prey to Hitler's U-boat fleet as they traversed the offshore waters. Tankers, cargo ships, British fishing trawlers and even German submarines, form impressive underwater monuments to this tumultuous segment of our maritime heritage. Among others, a World War I gunboat, a late 18th-century schooner, and an early 20th-century luxury liner exist in North Carolina's unparalleled collection of dive-able history.
Additionally, thanks to the continued efforts of the NC Division of Marine Fisheries Artificial Reef Program, local fishing organizations and the Carteret County Artificial Reef Association, North Carolina is home to a plethora of vessels sunk purposefully as artificial reefs. Like their historical counterparts, these sites host a vast array of marine life making for thoroughly enjoyable diving experiences.
Great video, I've been out of the water for a few years, but getting ready to get back into some underwater adventures. I've been out with Olympus twice and both times mother nature did not allow for the U boat but we did get to do the Spar and the Papoose.
Thank you. I want to go back with them, too. I need to redo a better video last time my camera got unhooked and I had to throw away most of the footage.
Awesome dive, awesome video! I got to dive the U-1277 in Portugal. But it was not such a good visibility!
U576 is also in NC
Karim i really enjoy your videos. Well shot, edited and scored. Really, really well done! Thank you!
Awesome video, congratulations 🎉. What kind of water temp do you get here?
According to my experience, a 5 mil will be more than fine. I dove with a 3 mil in July and I dove in 5 mil in November.
