The 13 Hours Discovery takes you to discover the Con Dao archipelago, in Vietnam. It is made up of 16 islands, 15 of which are uninhabited, away from tourist sites. Con Dao is home to one of the most beautiful dive sites on the planet.
It seems to float wide Vietnamese fleets. Con Daoan archipelago of 16 islands and islets, surrounded by turquoise waters and white sand beaches is a paradise unknown to tourists. To appreciate it and best observe its granite cliffs, you have to embark on a fishing boat local. The waters of Con Dao are among the most fish-rich in Vietnam, as confirmed by Gno Ra, fisherman.
A destination not yet touristy
Wild pearl of Vietnam, it is one of the few destinations in Southeast Asia to be still spared by tourists. For tourists, all that remains is to put on flippers to change the world, and observe multicolored fish underwater. There are 360 different species. There is also the gastronomy of Vietnam. Victor, a cook in the south of France, wanted to taste the banh mi, a sandwich consisting of a baguette, inherited from French colonists.
Con Dao is also the witness of a painful past, the French built gigantic prisons there to lock up opponents of colonization. From now on, Con Dao unveils its marvels, after the hell of the 19th century.
