Wiky wiky !! Those words Micky said in the morning to wake us up. What very good memories for this 5 day cruise.The cabins are clean and well laid out.We gain 2kg because it's so good!

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!

A well-rehearsed crew
The Pawara has a well-rehearsed crew that also spreads a good mood. Since the weather on my trip was a bit stormy, the course of the trip was changed a bit and also a dive was aborted due to an unexpectedly strong current. Safety comes first on the Pawara, I liked that. The highlight was certainly Richelieu Rock.

Very good, specially the dive leader Beto.
The boat was always on time for each dive, food as well. Dive masters known very well the sites and were able to give us the best for each site. The dive leader Beto (responsible for all dive masters), were unique in terms on be on time, give very detailed directions on each briefing, providing tranquility and safety for each dive.

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.

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.
