Tolles Tauchen mit sehr gutem Service
Ich hatte sehrviel Glück, da nur 12 Taucher anstatt 20+ Taucher auf dem Boot waren. Ich habe deswegen eine Einzelkabine bekommen. Wir hatten Pech mit dem Wetter, da es sehr selten Sonne gab. Deswegen war unter Wasser die Farbenpracht nicht sehr ausgeprägt. Allerdings waren die Tauchgänge trotzdem sehr schön. Unser Tauchguide (Adrian) war sehr gut. Hat alle Tauchgänge sehr gut geplant und durchgeführt. Der Cruise Direktor (Fred) hat alle Tauch Briefings sehr gut erklärt und viele Detailinformationen gegeben. Das Essen war auch sehr gut und die Getränkepreise für Alkohol und Softdrinks fair. Insgesamt kann ich diesen Tauchtrip sehr weiterempfehlen.

Good divining, but too many guest on board (overbooked?)
I had a great time on the Pawara liveaboard, but it could have been better in many ways. First, I think the boat was overbooked and it felt crowded 93 percent of the time. Somehow I got lucky with a cabin to myself, but there were still 27 divers on board (how is that possible?). The staff slept in the common area, which meant that was off-limits during certain hours of the day. It was always a hassle trying to find a place to eat (because there were too many people on board), and the food choices were just a tiny bit disappointing for those with dietary restrictions. However, I think the staff did a great job to keep the dives organized and in small groups. I made some really nice friends on this liveaboard also and I had a really good time and had really really nice dives.
