Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Radio Island Jetty, Morehead

Located on an island between Morehead City and Beaufort, parking is available at a county water access park. A hike up the beach you enter next to a fence that terminates in the water. Catch this site just before slack tide in order to ride along the rock lined channel. Lots of fish life, soft and hard corals, crabs and urchins. Maximum depth approximately 40 fsw. Top of the rocks averages around 15 fsw.

After a walk of about 1/4 of a mile, you can easily get to the jetty and begin your dive. The boat traffic in the channel is bad, but as long as you stay near the rocks, you're okay. The visability was about ten feet. There were lots of sea urchins and an array of different fish species. I enjoyed this dive, but not as much as my other dive at the Cape Lookout Rock Jetty.
