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.

Great Trip - crew and guides were amaizing
It was a great dive trip that my girlfriend and I had on Pawara in the beginning of February. The dives were (Most often) quite spectacular, which combined with a friendly crew, awsome guides and nice food made the whole trip unforgetable.

It's probably because of my first experience, but I enjoyed a lot. Food never get better, I liked it much more than the restaurants in phuket! All staffs are very friendly and so nice. I will definitely recomment pawara liveaboard to others!

A gem in the Similan Islands
The crew on board Pawara treat you like family from the moment you step on board, and are unrivalled in their hospitality. Food on board was often local cuisine which was absolutely delicious. Dive guides were knowledgable and made every dive unique and enjoyable.

Diving with Pawara and you’ll be happy.
We had a standardcabin quite next to the engine room, which made it a bit noisy. A person who had problems with falling asleep might need to consider this while choosing the best cabin for itself. - the food was amazing, I tried and eat something of everything. As someone who usually goes through a quite disciplined diet - no chance for skipping something. - the divesites were nice and we had some good luck on what we saw - the boat staff in general was super nice, friendly, and helpful - super big plus - micky, the diveoperator and a dive guide I want to give special credit: his humour, awareness , detailed explanation of divesites and positive energy, willing to help every diver in every experience class really was (as a client) just awesome. He defined the nice vibe the whole trip had. Thanks @ the whole boat-team and guides for a wonderful experience! 5/5 recommendation for choosing Pawara
