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 experience
So that was my first liveaboard experience and I'm very satisfied. Boat is in good shape, thai crew and dive masters are very friendly. Beto is a great leader who can help you with every problem. Diving was great, especially on Richelieu Rock, and the sunsets were most beautiful I've ever seen. Free nitrox is a nice addition. Def gonna come back in future.
