Philosophy and Local Community Contributions
Aside from diving, we make it a policy to give back, and take pride in our community, supporting it anyway we can. When join Wicked Diving on any dive or snorkel safari, you do more than just enjoy your vacation – you make a difference, and give back to the local community here in Khao Lak.
Respect for your surroundings, and culture is another core value at Wicked. We donate a portion of our profits every year to local charity and educational organizations.
We had the honor of sponsoring of 20 Burmese children this summer from the work camps in the surrounding area here in Khao Lak. Wicked Diving donated the transportation, food, housing and materials, and overall support (along of course with WICKED T’s for all the participants), so these kids could attend an educational summer camp through the Human Rights Development and Education Program.
Whenever possible, we offer our services and training experience in diving to those in the community who make a living from the business that tourism provides to the area. Specifically, this season Wicked will be donating our time and equipment to some of the members of the Thai National Marine Park in teaching them to dive.
We support local commerce by purchasing goods that are locally produced such as eggs from the Orphanage, soaps for the boats and more.
