Megalodon Shark Teeth Hunting

June 16-18, 2023

Mike Gerken & Wrightsville Beach Diving

on the 

Ledge Tender

 

A days dig.


The Megladon shark lived over 2-20 million years ago. With lengths as great as 60 feet and teeth as big as 7 inches, this was the largest predator the earth has ever seen. One's imagination runs wild when holding these ancient fossils in your hand. The North Carolina Coast is renown for having large deposits of "meg" teeth buried only inches below the sand. Divers can easily dig the sea bed and uncover prized teeth cherished by collectors. If you're lucky you may find the coveted 6" or larger tooth.

 

When you first uncover a tooth you will feel a rush of discovery and likely get bitten by the bug. The "Ledge Tender" out of Wrightsville Beach, NC has been at this for a long time. Let me say simply, these guys are dialed in.

There is a chance Mike may not be on board for this charter but will see the boat off in the morning and greet you upon return. I will be taking care of all logistics so you don't have to. Just show up with your gear and certification card and I'll cover the rest.
