The upper keys are an excellent choice. My family did a few vacations there, my younger daughter and wife did their open water certification dives there. There are almost too many good choices for dive ops. I can recommend Elena (see post #5 above).

I dove for a week with Key Largo Dive Center last June/July and did many reef trips and the Spiegel Grove for my AOW. Great six pack operation. Had a good time. Key Largo Dive Center | Reefs to dive for!

Happy birthday Kris! Hope it was a good one.

I have to be in Orlando the week after this, so I'll be in the neighborhood. I'm looking forward to meeting some new people and doing some great diving! I'm driving down so I'll have everything but tanks. Can anyone recommend a good place to rent some? Thanks!
