Thanks for all of the responses.
Of course I do not want to forfeit my safety for the cheapest option, however I'm traveling the US & Canada on a budget. I've never scuba dived before but have good swimming skills. It's an activity that I'd like to try and possibly get a qualification in, however it's also an additional cost that's not in my budget, so I need to weigh it up against other things.
Perhaps I shouldn't have asked for the cheapest and best, but a reputable and relatively cheaper place. A shop or resort somewhere on the West coast, I would think a resort would cost more though.
Thanks especially to JKPAO, --tom--, k ellis, orm, peterrobbemond, PhilEllis and Mike Boswell for your suggestions.
