History Underwater: My Con Dao Wreck Diving Journey with Amadive.|Diving a Sunken Ship in Vietnam: An Adventure with Amadive Con Dao.|Con Dao's Sunken Secret: Wreck Diving with Amadive Con Dao.
When I planned my dive trip to Con Dao, Vietnam, I was picturing beautiful reefs. And I found them. But I saw something on Amadive Con Dao's dive list: **Wreck Diving**. My heart leaped. This was more than a standard reef dive; this was exploration into history.
Honestly, I felt nervous. Wreck diving is serious business. But the team at **Amadive** were incredible. Their Divemasters provided a very thorough safety briefing. We covered safety protocols, the story of the wreck, and what we would see. The fact we were in a small group instantly made me feel confident.
Going down was surreal. First, it was just a shadow in the distance, and then the wreck came into view. It is huge. The ship is now a thriving new home, covered in corals and teeming with fish. I spotted big groupers peeking from the cargo hold, and schools of fusiliers hiding in the superstructure. The feeling of gliding next to this silent, ghostly structure was hard to describe—haunting, beautiful, and humbling at the same time. It truly is Where to dive in Vietnam a piece of history on the seabed.
If you're an Open Water diver (or higher) coming to Con Dao and looking for something more the usual reef dive, I urge you this **dive** highly enough. It was the absolute highlight of my diving trip. A huge shout-out to the **Amadive** crew for their expertise and for making this incredible adventure possible and safe.
