Unearthed: Prehistoric Fossil Hunting Expeditions
The Southeast is a treasure trove of prehistoric history, and you don’t always need a scuba tank to find it. From walking the banks of hidden creeks to diving the dark waters of the "black water" rivers, we guide you to the places where history is hiding in plain sight. Whether you are looking for your first shark tooth or chasing the elusive 6-inch Megalodon, we can get you there.
Fossil Diving & Dark Water Charters
The Depths Hide the Giants. If you want to find the big ones—the massive Megalodon teeth that have been waiting for millions of years—you usually have to go deeper. We specialize in fossil diving charters in world-renowned locations like the Cooper River and the limestone ledges of the coast.
New to fossil diving? This is different from clear ocean diving. We offer specialized Black Water / Fossil Dive Training to get you comfortable with low-visibility conditions, current management, and the specific gear you need to recover delicate finds safely. We provide the boat, the captain, and the local knowledge; you bring the sense of adventure.
Land-Based Guided Hunts
Keep Your Feet Dry, Get Your Hands Dirty. Fossil hunting takes a little luck and a whole lot of local knowledge. We have curated access to private spots and hidden public gems where the ground is rich with history.
On our guided land tours, you'll learn how to look, not just where. Our guides will teach you to identify prehistoric shark teeth, vertebrae, and marine fossils common to the Carolinas. It’s the perfect "Blue Mind" treasure hunt for families, groups, or anyone who wants to connect with the ancient history of our region without getting wet.
