Travel Information

Morehead City, NC July 19 - 22, 2012

We are planning on doing 4 possibly 5 dives off Morehead City, NC.  These will be boat dives at wreck sites in the “grave yard of the Atlantic”.   (We will be diving at the wrecks not penetrating them.)  The exact dive locations and wrecks will be picked by the boat Captain, but we intend to dive the U-352 a German WWII sub sunk April 9 1942.

Trip details can be found in this PDF Document!

Trip price is $500. Trip includes:

  • Transportation from Harrisburg Scuba Center to Morehead City and back.
  • Two days of chartered boat diving, with an experienced captain including steel tanks, weights and air/nitrox fills.
  • PADI Scuba Instructor and/or DM leading the dives.
  • Three nights stay at the “Fisherman’s Inn.”   A cozy motel…
The trip does not include food, tips nor dive gear.

The diving will be “deep dives” with depths between 70-120 feet.  The water temp is expected to be in the high 70s to the mid 80s. The visibility is reported to be very good, with clear blue water over the wrecks.

Due to the nature and depth of these dives we recommend that divers be certified as Advanced Open Water Divers, or have at least 20 logged dives and have had a deep dive in their diving career.   Wreck diving certification is not necessary as we will not be penetrating these wrecks. We also recommend that divers have their NITROX certification prior to the trip. Contact me it you would like to get your NITROX cert prior to the trip.

We need a minimum of 11 divers to go and can take up to 18 divers.  This trip will take YOU to one of the best dive locations on the East Coast during peak dive season!!!!   It is important that we hear back from YOU ASAP!!!  We can’t wait until the last minute on this one.
