Join us for a day of diving the blue-green waters off the Outer Banks, NC long known as "THE GRAVEYARD OF THE ATLANTIC SHIPWRECKS." Please call Captain Crockett at (252) 423-0451 or (252) 473-3667 for information on available dive charters.
Diving the blue - green waters off North Carolina's Outer Banks, long known as the "GRAVEYARD OF THE ATLANTIC SHIPWRECKS", is a wonderful and unique experience. Join us on a boat trip there that will likely become one of your favorites. On the same day, visit the famous German U - Boat U-85, resting only 15 miles off the coast in 95 ft. of water and the ill-fated Coast Guard Cutter Jackson sunk during the storm in 1944. This is only one of the combination trips that let's the diver relieves maritime history. We have many other dives listed in our Brochure and some that are not. Several sites are new discoveries and have never been fully explored. Some are for the very experienced but most are for the well-trained divers. Selection of dive sites chosen by the Charter will be honored unless conditions (visibility, currents, weather) dictate otherwise. Fortunately, for the group the Captain knows where the best conditions are located daily. We also supply experienced certified dive masters to assist you on board and tie-in and un-tie descent lines. If your group brings a dive master, he or she is free to lead the dive.
A fascinating look at the story of U-85, her captain and crew, and the diving and adventure that have followed. U-85 was sunk April 14, 1942 by the U.S.S. Roper 15 miles northeast of Oregon Inlet North Carolina.
