SCUBA DIVING CHARTERS: What defines the terms Inshore versus Offshore?
Inshore Dives: Classified as being within 0 to 15 miles out of the inlet, our inshore dives typically range between depths of 45 and 70 feet. These dives offer a variety of underwater environments, suitable for both novice and experienced divers looking for a closer, shallower dive.
Offshore Dives: Beginning approximately 16 miles from our inlet, our offshore dives extend to our most distant and thrilling locations, including the famed Megalodon and Fossil hunting grounds, situated about 63 miles from Bogue Inlet. These sites promise adventurous dives in deeper waters, suited to more experienced divers. The depth of these dives can range anywhere between 85 and 130 feet of depth, so Advanced Open Water or Deep or Advanced Adventurer are required. Enriched Air (Nitrox) Diver Certification is also required as you will use Nitrox to maximize your bottom time and reduce nitrogen loading.
