Unhinged tourists pay thousands to stay at ‘most dangerous’ hotel in the world — in the middle of the ocean

Room service is only a helicopter away.

Adventurous vacationers are shelling out thousands of dollars to be ferried deep into the Atlantic Ocean and left stranded on a rusting steel tower 80 feet above shark-infested waters, in what has been dubbed the world’s most dangerous hotel. 

A TikTok video posted by charter boat captain Austin Aycock showing him depositing six tourists at the Frying Pan    Tower off the North Carolina coast has racked up 2.2 million views, with commenters torn between terror and fascination.

Adventurous tourists are paying thousands to be ferried 35 miles off the North Carolina coast and left stranded on Frying Pan Tower, a decommissioned 1964 Coast Guard light station that has been dubbed the most dangerous hotel in the world.

“See you in a couple days!” Aycock cheerfully called out as he pulled away, leaving the group marooned on the decommissioned Coast Guard light station that rises 135 feet above the Atlantic swells.
