We are a collective of Diving Instructors who founded Wicked on a belief that diving should be safe, educational and fun. Our passion for diving is infectious and many of our guests find that they learn more than they expected about our region.
All of us are Instructors with several years experience in the Similans.
Just about everyone at Wicked has traveled all over the world (none of us has dived in Antarctica…yet) but the beauty of the Similan & Surin Islands, as well as our beautiful town of Khao Lak has bewitched all of us.
You will find a different kind of diving here. We guide our dives personally; we donate portions of our proceeds to local charities as well as our time.
We don’t do “beach clean-up days”. Every day is beach clean-up for us. We always maintain a “no impact” dive ethic, trying to observe and preserve our dive sites for all future Andaman scuba divers. You wll never see gloves on our divers, fish-feeding is also discouraged and we even have safety equipment of European Standards.
You’ll also find that we offer so much more. With Climbing, trekking, golfing, snorkeling, kayaking all within a few minutes of Khao Lak we often take our guests for excursions ourselves. If you need a ride to the airport – we do it!
Don’t just dive with us – experience Khao Lak! Stay for a few weeks and see how things are…maybe just disappear into a hammock for a while…
All our staff have extensive safety training from Diver Safety. We also involve you in our ongoing projects like Whale Shark Conservation, Greenfins and Reef Check.
When you would like to make a difference, join us for something a little bit more. We continually strive to make our purchases locally, to make a positive impact in our host culture. In addition 10% of our profits are donated to local charities.
