Description
This was taken at Cape Hatteras in Buxton on Hatteras Island on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. It is the point that protrudes the farthest to the southeast, along the northeast-to-southwest line of the Atlantic coast of North America, and is the nearest landmass to Bermuda. The cape's shoals are known as Diamond Shoals at the confluence of the Labrador and Florida currents. So many ships have been lost off Cape Hatteras that the area is known as the "Graveyard of the Atlantic."
