MV Pawara

  • Introduction

    MV Pawara was launched in February 2006, at 35 meters in length, the Pawara is by far one of the largest boats cruising in the Similans. Her all steel construction makes her safe and smooth, promising a relaxing ride throughout your trip. Each of her 10 double cabins features its own sink, toilet and hot shower for the ultimate in privacy and convenience. Each cabin also has its own air-conditioner, so you can adjust your cabin just how you like it. Each cabin also has multiple 220v outlets so you can charge your cameras, laptops, or other diving accessories. The Deluxe rooms also have work desks and chairs for the avid underwater photographers.

    Pawara's large dive deck in the rear of the boat gives you plenty of room to set up and get in. Our on board nitrox system allows nitrox ceritfied divers to extend their bottom times with enriched air mixes. We offer Nitrox certification on board, along with other courses such as deep and photo specialty.

    Dive groups are maximum of 4 people, and your gear is washed and your tanks are filled for you by our highly trained staff. Standard and DIN tanks are available on the boat.
