Dive into the Wild with YAY Scuba

Wrecks, Sharks, and One Epic Adventure in Morehead City, NC. Are you ready for a diving experience that will leave you breathless (in the best way)? Join YAY Scuba this August for four days of heart-pounding wreck and shark diving off the coast of North Carolina—the legendary Graveyard of the Atlantic.

We’re talking massive WWII-era shipwrecks, crystal-clear blue water, and dozens of sand tiger sharks lazily cruising the current like they own the place. Spoiler alert: they do. This trip isn’t for the faint of heart—it’s for divers who crave that next-level thrill and want to surround themselves with badass wrecks, big animals, and an awesome YAY Scuba crew.

Why This Trip Rocks

• Sharks, sharks, sharks! Up-close encounters with sand tiger sharks—no cage, no gimmicks—just you and these graceful apex predators cruising wrecks like ghostly guardians.
• Epic WWII wrecks like the U-352 and Schurz make every dive feel like a journey back in time.
• No crowds (hopefully), just connection. Dive with a small, from YAY Scuba and soak up the vibes of shared adventure.
• Big schools, big life: Barracuda, flounder, grouper, amberjack, and loads of vibrant marine life await.
• Unreal vis & warm water: Prime summer conditions make for gorgeous dives and maximum stoke.

Who’s This For?

This is an intermediate to advanced diver’s dream. You should have:

• 25+ dives under your belt, preferably more, ideally in ocean or current-heavy environments
