About this site
Proteus lies off the coast of North Carolina in the Atlantic waters often called the Graveyard of the Atlantic, an area known for its concentration of shipwrecks from World War II and earlier maritime traffic. The coordinates place it well offshore, in the deeper waters typically reached by long boat runs out of ports like Morehead City or Beaufort. The dive is rated intermediate, and divers have reported barracuda and grouper around the wreck.
