Amazing time on Pawara
Great time all around. The food was amazing, the crew as well. The dive sites were beautiful and our guide Mickey was full of energy and love for the ocean. The vibes on the boat were great, loads of fun A big shout-out to the Thai crew who made our life so easy, even reminding us to drink water before a dive and waiting with hot towels after sunset/night dives.

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. 😉

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 😎

This is a very fun crew. The boat was great. They were so helpful. We saw our first Sea Snake, and a Giant Grouper. This is our 3rd liveabord and they will be our first choice next year.
