A heartwarming story involves a young anonymous foreign couple who chose to take a seabed walk and turn it into a memorable engagement.

The crystal clear and blue waters of Phu Quoc, teeming with vibrant fish and colorful corals, create a picturesque backdrop for such romantic gestures. Many couples have been swept away by the beauty and emotion of this underwater world, making it a popular choice for proposals.

“This foreign couple is a wonderful addition to the list of young lovers who have chosen to express their love beneath the waves,” shared Director Nguyen.

Organizing a proposal on the ocean floor demands meticulous planning and thoughtful execution to ensure a private and intimate setting for the couple. The event organizer must guide the process, from the presentation of the ring to posing for photographs, capturing the magic of the moment.
