About Us
If you want Scuba Diving in Trinidad and Tobago and the Caribbean?
You are at the right place. UWIL has been in existence for the past four (4) years, while its affiliate Nick’s
Watersports has been in existence for the past six(6) years.
At Nick’s Watersports, we train swimmers and scuba divers and have made a name for ourselves as the
number one training facility in Trinidad. We are known for serving persons of all ages and our prices for training and
equipment are the best in the market. We offer PDIC and PADI international scuba diving certifications, providing a standard
of training that is comparable to any other training facility in the world.
UWIL was set up to facilitate the needs
of the growing commercial diving industry in Trinidad and Tobago and the Caribbean. We recognised that a large number of the
companies were utilising scuba divers to perform commercial diving jobs for private and state agencies. This is not a
safe practice as these scuba divers are not trained with the proper skills and knowledge expected and required of commercial
divers. At UWIL, we have the personnel and equipment to adequately train commercial divers to work in both
the national and international commercial diving industry.
