Fun Fact: Diamond Shoals extends fourteen miles out into the Atlantic Ocean and is comprised of shifting sandbars lurking shallowly under the waters of Cape Hatteras. Strong currents and hidden shoals have sunk many a ship. Hence this area of North Carolina’s coast is known as the “Graveyard of the Atlantic.” The remains of more than 2,000 ships have settled to the ocean.
