NC coast is hot spot for prehistoric Megalodon shark teeth

WRIGHTSVILLE BEACH, NC (WTVD) — The North Carolina coast is known for many things but, for divers, it is well known as a hot spot for finding giant prehistoric Megalodon teeth.

“It’s really rare,” explained Marine Biologist and owner of WB Diving, Chris Slog. “In North Carolina, we’re really lucky and specifically Wilmington, N.C., it’s one of a few places in the world where you can find the Megalodon teeth in those numbers,” Slog explained.

“The teeth have been found all over the world, but not in the concentrations we’re finding here,” Slog said.

Slog leads divers to Megalodon Tooth Ledges from 26 to 40 miles off the coast of Wrightsville Beach.
