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.

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. 😉

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.

Amazing diving with great people
I was very impressed how well organized everything was. The best thing was, that you could tell everyone on the boat does their job with love and passion. All the dive-guides were very excited about the diving and made the trip special for us. I booked the budget cabin with a shared bathroom, which was no problem at all. The shared bathroom was very clean and I rarely had to wait to use it. The food was outstanding!

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.
