Deeper Than the Reef: My Con Dao Wreck Diving Adventure with Amadive.|Diving a Sunken Ship in Vietnam: My Wreck Dive with Amadive Con Dao.|The Ghost Ship of Con Dao: My Wreck Dive with Amadive.
When I booked my dive trip to Con Dao, I was picturing vibrant coral reefs. And don't get me wrong, they were amazing. But then I saw something on the Amadive itinerary: **A Shipwreck Dive**. My heart leaped. This wasn't just a typical dive; this was journey into the past.
I'll admit, I felt a little apprehensive. Wreck diving requires extra care. But the team at **Amadive** was fantastic. Their Divemasters provided a very thorough safety briefing. We discussed our safety procedures, the story of the wreck, and what to expect below. Being in such a small group immediately made me feel confident.
Descending was surreal. At first, it's a shadow in the distance, and then it came into view. It is massive. The ship is now a thriving new home, covered in soft corals and swarming with fish. We saw big groupers peeking from the hull, and lionfish hiding in the superstructure. That feeling of gliding alongside this giant, silent structure was hard to describe—eerie, awe-inspiring, and humbling all at once. It truly is a piece of history on the seabed.
For any an Open Water diver (or higher) coming to Con Dao and looking for an adventure beyond the standard reef, I cannot urge you this **Con Dao wreck dive** website highly enough. It was the unforgettable highlight of my Vietnam trip. A massive shout-out to the **Amadive Con Dao** team for their expertise and for making this incredible adventure so memorable.
