Deeper Than the Reef: My Wreck Dive Experience with Amadive.|Diving a Sunken Ship in Vietnam: My Wreck Dive with Amadive Con Dao.|The Ghost Ship of Con Dao: Wreck Diving with Amadive.
When I booked my dive trip to Con Dao, I was picturing beautiful coral reefs. And don't get me wrong, they were amazing. But then I discovered something on Amadive Con Dao's dive list: **A Shipwreck Dive**. My pulse jumped. This was more than a typical dive; this was journey into history.
Honestly, I was a bit a little apprehensive. Wreck diving is serious business. But the crew at **Amadive** was absolutely professional. Their Divemasters provided a very thorough safety briefing. We discussed safety protocols, the story of the wreck, and what to expect below. Being in a small group instantly made me feel confident.
Going down was magical. First, it was just a shadow in the distance, and then it appeared. It was massive. The ship is now a bustling artificial reef, draped in soft corals and swarming with marine life. I spotted big groupers hiding from the hull, and Scuba diving in Vietnam review lionfish patrolling the superstructure. That feeling of gliding alongside this silent, ghostly vessel was indescribable—eerie, beautiful, and humbling at the same time. It truly is a time capsule 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 **Con Dao wreck dive** highly enough. It was the absolute highlight of my diving trip. A huge shout-out to the **Amadive Con Dao** team for their professionalism and for making this unforgettable experience so memorable.
