Sister boat of Pawara Thailand Liveaboard

MV Sawasdee Fasai

Enjoy a little bit of luxury onboard the MV Sawasdee Fasai Similans liveaboard.  Previously known as Scuba Explorer, this boat is now owned and managed by the same team that own MV Pawara, so you can expect the same high standard of accommodation and excellent service. This steel-hulled luxury dive boat has been completely refurbished in 2016 and is spacious and very comfortable. With complimentary nitrox for enriched air certified divers and delicious Western and Thai food served, it is guaranteed to be just as popular as it’s sister ship.
