Great White on the Papoose (NC Wreck Dive with IFAD) 02/08/2023

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

Nothing tops diving in the winter off the coast of North Carolina and we are about to show you why. Our offshore wrecks hold hundreds of sand tiger sharks as well as visitors that are migrating through our area. It is not uncommon to see Great White sharks in our waters, especially during the cooler months. No cage. No bait. Just dive! And how do you sign up for this sweet dive? Find us on Facebook at Instigator Fishing and Diving or on Instagram at @InstigatorFAD. #IFAD #InstigatorFishingAndDiving #InstigatorFAD #Instigator #NCDiving #GreatWhiteShark #SandtigerShark #NCWreckDiving #Scuba #PurpleHairMermaid #Papoose #LiveDriftDive #Sherwood #Diversco #GoProHero10 #Henderson #Aqualock #VikingYachts #Saltlife
