The fossil ledge is a great dive for those looking to recover some Megalodon and other sharks’ teeth. You can also find various shark and whale bones. The ledges themselves are great dives in addition to the great fossil finds. The depth is usually between 95 and 105 feet. It is best to go with someone who has knowledge of the ledge. It is also recommended that you use a wreck reel as it is easy to get disoriented because your attention is on the fossils. This is a highly recommended dive.
