Diver's Notes

Deep water dive with The Dive Shop Instructor John Lyerly to complete PADI Deep Diver Certification. This dive was a very cool wreck and teaming with typical small to medium sea life. It was also an excellent penetration wreck dive. I would like to go back to this wreck again.

Dove with a charter out of Olympus Dive Center in Morehead City, NC. The diving was amazing. We were on their boat called the Midnight. We stayed at the Dive Lodge owned by Olympus Dive Center for $30.00 per night.
