About this site
USS Indra (ARL-37) is a wreck lying in 60 feet (18.3 metres) of water, about 10 miles from Beaufort Inlet off the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The 330 foot (100 metre) landing craft was sunk as part of the North Carolina artificial reef program.
She sits upright and partially intact, and she lies close to Morehead City. Since the 1990s she has probably been visited by more divers than any other wreck off the Outer Banks, and she draws both novice and advanced divers.
Visibility is good, the season runs from June to October, and water temperatures range from 70 to 81°F (21 to 27°C).
