About your trip

Join Dive With Frank for two full days of offshore wreck diving and Megalodon shark tooth hunting off the coast of Wilmington, NC. This is real Atlantic diving — deep ledges, historic wrecks, moving water, and earned treasure.

This is not a sightseeing drift dive. This is for divers who like their stories heavy, their finds black and enamel-thick, and their dives planned properly.

.*If you don't have your AOW or Nitrox certifications don't worry, DWF has you covered. But we should get you taken care of sooner rather than later?

Requirements

  • Advanced Open Water certification required

  • Enriched Air Nitrox certification required

  • SMB / safety sausage required

  • Wreck reel required

  • Comfortable with depths approaching 100 ft

  • Comfortable with task loading (searching, navigation, buoyancy, situational awareness)

If any of this gives you pause, reach out before booking. These are not beginner dives.
