Why dive here
With 42+ marine species recorded in the area - including sea turtles - Zane Gray offers some of North Carolina's richest diving. Water ranges 12-28°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Zane Gray offers a classic North Carolina wreck dive. We're talking about a tugboat, sitting upright in 30 meters, often with good visibility. You’ll typically spot sand tiger sharks patrolling the deck, alongside schools of Atlantic spadefish and barracuda. It's a solid dive for advanced open water divers comfortable with deeper wrecks and potential currents.
