Atlantus is a shore accessible salt water dive site, located in Cape May, NJ. The maximum depth is 16-20ft/5-6m. The average visibility is 5-10ft/2-3m.

Atlantus was one of a class of experimental concrete ships built during World War I. The hull was constructed of reinforced concrete rather than steel, which had become scarce during the war. While this design offered a number of advantages, including lower noise and vibration, and a dryer cargo space, it was not economically competitive with steel hulls when peacetime resumed.

For reference only, because of tides, surge and rebar sticking out of this wreck I would not dive it.
