Amazing time on Pawara
Great time all around. The food was amazing, the crew as well. The dive sites were beautiful and our guide Mickey was full of energy and love for the ocean. The vibes on the boat were great, loads of fun A big shout-out to the Thai crew who made our life so easy, even reminding us to drink water before a dive and waiting with hot towels after sunset/night dives.

Amazing liveaboard experience
I had an incredible liveaboard experience on Pawara. The diving was world-class, the food was consistently delicious, and the staff were wonderfully kind and attentive. Our dive guide Pong made sure that we had incredible dives and helped us spot some of the rarer species around the dive sites. Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort and adventure combined.

Excellent
Highly recommend for their liveaboard boat the MV PAWARA, had an excellent time on a 4 night 5 day dive to Similans and Richelieu Rock. We weren't experienced divers but our dive instructor Mickey was a blast and taught us very well. Food was 10/10 and onboard service impeccable.

Excellent First Liveaboard
This was our first liveaboard, and it’s going to be hard to top. The diving in the Similans was incredible — every site felt unique and full of life. Mickey and the entire crew went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of the whole time. We were always well fed, well rested, and genuinely excited for every single dive. An unforgettable experience.
