Where abouts are you looking at diving? In the UK or abroad?
If no-one can recommend a place here, your best bet would be to go to a local dive club near where you want to go diving and they'll be able to give you the best recommendations for your level of experience and what you want to see.

in the UK, i tried the LDS but they only say the good wrecks are boat dives, im trying to find one suitable for a shore/kayak/dingy dive as i pay for all my diving myself and for a kid with no job, thats pretty hard, so i have to do cheap dives

I highly recommend the James Eagan Layne in Whitsands Bay, Cornwall/Devon. It's about 600m West of the new Scylla wreck. The Eagan Layne has FANTASTIC corals on it, and anemones, starfish, wrasse, pollack, eels, crabs, etc... It's absolutely beautiful. I know a dive centre (in Plymouth, Devon) where you can get a boat dive for only £15, and an air fill for £3. They also do regular dive shuttles on the Scylla... But I'd leave that for a bit if I was you, there's not much on it yet but algae! I wouldn't say the Eagan Layne is accesible from the shore.
Also, the Eagan Layne is a VERY open wreck, you can swim through it easily, you don't really swim 'in' it so much as 'through' it... But it is COVERED with marine life and I'd highly recommend it. One of my favourite dive sites for sure!
If you want to know the name of the dive centre, send me a pm... Not sure if I'm allowed to post it here??
