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.

Excellent
Highly recommend for their liveaboard boat the MV PAWARA, had an excellent time on a 4 night 5 day dive to Similans and Richelieu Rock. We weren't experienced divers but our dive instructor Mickey was a blast and taught us very well. Food was 10/10 and onboard service impeccable.

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! The team is at the TOP 👌, bravo !! We spent the week with Alex who offered us some very nice dives. Briefings before each dive. On the way back we debrief, Alex guided us well during these 5 days.We had a very nice cruise with a good group and very good friendliness.We had rented our very good quality material and equipment.The resa beforehand was well followed.So very satisfied with this second cruise with Liveaboard and the crew of the Pawara 🤩

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.
