The 150m long Aeolus is one of North Carolina’s popular wrecks that was sunk as an artificial reef and lies in 35m of water. It became the home base for tens of sharks, particularly in an open area that has been named the club. It is a bustle of activity in and around the club, you just have to wait along the perimeter of the wreck and let the sharks come towards you.
