MV Ondina was an oil tanker built in 1939 and owned by Royal Dutch Shell; initially operated by the La Corona shipping company.

In November 1942, during the Second World War, it was attacked in the Indian Ocean by two Japanese commerce raiders, one of which (the Hōkoku Maru) was sunk possibly by a shell fired by the Ondina.

Fitted with a single Werkspoor six-cylinder diesel engine that was capable of generating 2,800 horsepower (2,100 kW), the ship had a top speed of 12 knots (22 km/h; 14 mph).

Completed in August 1939, prior to the Second World War the vessel sailed for La Corona, a subsidiary of the Royal Dutch Shell company.
