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.

Just awesome
Everything was great. The staff was so good, they always gave good briefing, about everything, so you always know what to expect, and what to do. They served food and snacks between each dive, and it was so delicious. So you never walked around hungry. The boat boys took good care of the equipment, and make sure your gear always was ready for each dive. Everything was just great, and I’m definitely gonna come back for round 2. 😉

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.

Amazing crew and great diving
We visited Similan National Park onboard of Pawara and enjoyed every moment of the trip including fantastic dives. The crew of Pawara is catering to all guest needs and the food is outstanding. The diving operation is smooth and all dive guides are taking care of safety of the guests and high quality dives. We had great time!

Nice diving, areas to make things better
Overall I enjoyed the trip. It was a nice atmosphere between dives with the group. Big sundeck upstairs to relax between dives. Dive sites were good and varied. The staff were nice and friendly. Food was great! They want to provide a good offer and ask for feedback. The basic cabin was a big negative: The room is not suitable for two people. No space for belongings. Had to leave my bags on the dive deck in a communal area. Not nice to pack personal belongings in the landing next to the kitchen in front of others. Also the dive level is not accurate: it is hard current diving so OW and no dives recorded is not the right level and you need nitrox to really do the dives well.
