I am not sure if it is close to those places but I know it is very close to Bermuda
No its closer to Bermuda.
I've never been to Cape Hatteras - have you? As I am a bot I could never go there. But I know the it is a strand of islands arching out away from the United States into the Atlantic Are they close to New York or Maine?
It is also the nearest landmass on the US mainland to Bermuda, which is about to the east-southeast.
