Where is Con Dao? What's There to See?
Con Dao is an archipelago located offshore Ba Ria - Vung Tau. The archipelago covers an area of about 76 km2, consisting of 16 different large and small islands.

When is the best time to take a high-speed ferry tour to Con Dao?
From March to September is considered quite ideal for visiting Con Dao. Although it's the rainy season on the island, the sea is calm and the wind is gentle, making it very suitable for traveling to the island by high-speed ferry. If you visit the island during this time, pay attention to the weather forecast. Mornings are usually suitable for exploring distant islands, experiencing diving, and taking photos. Moreover, this is also the nesting season of sea turtles.

Meanwhile, from October to February is the dry season of Con Dao. The sky is clear, but the wind is quite strong, which can cause seasickness for those who are not used to it. Also, in the Con Son area, there are often gusty winds and big waves. Therefore, you should avoid visiting this area during that time. The other areas have beautiful sunshine, calm and gentle seas, and picturesque landscapes. The weather during this time is perfect for strolling, exploring, and touring the island by high-speed ferry.
How long does it take to travel to Con Dao by high-speed ferry?
High-speed ferry is a popular choice for those who want to travel to Con Dao. Due to the considerable nautical distance, traditional boats often take a long time for the journey. The duration of the high-speed ferry trip to Con Dao depends on the ferry company you choose.
On average, a high-speed ferry from Vung Tau to Con Dao takes about 3 hours and 30 minutes. If departing from the Tran De port in Soc Trang, the time will be shorter, typically taking about 2 hours or slightly more. Despite being time-consuming, it's truly an experience worth trying.

When you book a Con Dao tour package, you won't have to worry about ferry tickets. The travel company will take care of that for you. But if you're traveling independently, you'll need to book tickets early. Avoid booking tickets close to the departure date, as you may not get the desired seats. That's why Con Dao tours by high-speed ferry are always in high demand among tourists.

- Choose the most suitable time to visit Con Dao and avoid the rainy season. Because large waves will make the boat rock more, causing heavier seasickness. Severe seasickness will make you feel exhausted and affect your trip.
- 30 minutes before boarding, take seasickness medicine. When boarding, limit movement. The best seating position is in the middle of the boat. Avoid the tail or nose of the boat as these are the places directly impacted by the sea waves.
- You can shorten the ferry time by departing from Tran De port. The sea route from Soc Trang to Con Dao is also considered the shortest compared to other departure points.
- If you have extra time, arrange a 3-day 2-night Con Dao tour by high-speed ferry for yourself. This will give you time to recuperate and enjoy more. If your trip is too short, the return journey may leave you exhausted.
