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.

Organized very professionally, awesome trip
Overall experience was amazing. Beto did a great job with organizing. it was a tight schedule but we were able to get the most out of it. I am really surprised how professionally the tour was planned. We were 21 divers on board, we dived in waves and never had a problem. Our instructor was Angel, we had superb dives. Staff was very friendly, we did not have a single problem, it was a very positive and a lot of fun trip. Kit - chef was amazing. We explored islands before diving trip and the food on boat was better than any of the restaurants we have been to. i dived in Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Hawaii before. Dive sites in this trip were way better than any of my previous experiences. We have seen whalesharks and marine life was very alive, a lot of schools of fish and amazing landscape with sea fans, pinnacles. I rarely leave good reviews, but this one was 5 star in every aspect.
