I just got back from doing an advanced dive course with Wicked Diving and the three day Similan Islands liveaboard trip. I found great diving, wonderful people, delicious food and excellent dive instructors. I highly recommend this company, and will definitely be doing more liveaboards in the future. I'd recommend it for couples, individuals or groups of friends of any... More

I just recently spent 2 weeks in Thailand, and joined the Apr 17 - 19th Similian Islands liveaboard for 3 days of it. The entire trip was amazing, but the Wicked Diving 3-day liveaboard experience was an emphatic highlight. I really enjoyed spending time with all of the guides. My buddy, Nate, and I were privileged to get Anna as... More

Never having been to Thailand before as well as a distinct lack of experience on a liveaboard and having an intolerance to spicy food I was a liitle worried about coping on a boat for 6 days!

Firstly we will start our review with a bit of background about us before describing how amazing we found Anna from Wicked Diving. We are a 45 year old Australian couple. My husband has always been a bit of a dolphin and is often more at home in the water than on land. Doing his Open Water Dive cert has... More

Wicked diving was awesome...amazing friendly staff and brilliant service from reservations to being on the boat and gearing up for diving. As most people have mentioned, the boat is not luxurious but thats not what the trip is about. The food is great and diving super safe and organised. Similans are beautiful,but to be honest I was a little disappointed... More

Wicked Diving aims instead for great service and lots of fun. It sounds like we delivered that :) It is true - the coral on the Similan (and Surin) Islands was... More
