- Dive guides were experienced, friendly, but also very observant and on top of things at all times. They kept schedules tight while keeping everyone in a happy mood.. Boat crew : deckhands, cooks and captain were all super friendly and helpful towards divers at all times, and the food was excellent, in good quantity at all times.. Boat was clean, kept clean. Dive gear was kept orderly while lounge and dining area were kept clean and tidy..

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!

It was amazing! 🤩
The moment we left the trip, we wanted to get right back on the boat and do another trip. That’s how good it was! Vincent and the crew were awesome, they answered any concerns we had and were flexible with everyone’s needs on the boat. The amount of money you pay doesn’t equate to the level of comfort you get - the crew went out of their way to make every single day and dive super fun, enjoyable and relaxing for us. We are already making plans for our next trip which will be very soon 😎

Overall a seamless, well organized, run operation, with well planned dives and all in great comfort!
I have been fortunate to be on a few Liveaboards and this trip exceeded my initial expectation. The crew, the focus on safety, attention to detail and of course the diving were all exceptional and good value for money. Vincent runs a tight ship and will have you miss his wakey wakey routine! Fred who was the dive instructor in our group was a gem and Neptune underwater! Rishab and Pong instructors from the other groups were the octopus whispererand Zen master respectively were lovely to be around. Personally would have no hesitation recommending Pawara or taking another trip on the boat. The chef and kitchen will keep ensure your belly lines grow inspite of all the diving :) Thank you for a lovely time and the only wish was that this trip was longer.

A lovely cruise on Pawara
We had a really lovely cruise on Pawara. The boat is efficient and nice but the best part are the staff and the dives. Michie is a great leader on the boat and everything goes flawless and he is also a very competent guide and instructor. I had dives also with Philippe and Pom and they are both great guides! My wife had a muscolar problem and they all help her not losing too much dives and she was able to complete advanced course. All the staff is really great and friendly and the food is very good and abundant. I liked a lot the dives, especially Richelieu Rock spot. Very reccomended!
