You're are correct in assuming the diving is all live aboard. It took us a couple of weeks to locate an operation who would pick us up from our live aboard, which did not offer diving. Unfortunately, Sub-Aqua was two and half hours late, two of us were sick with food poisoning, and they refused to refund our money. You'll have to spend some searching time to get service. Good luck.

well we turned up in september at scuba iguana in santa cruz and did about 20 odd dives with them, we ended up paying around half what some people had paid through their tour operators or on the mainland
i guess it depends what your used to and your bargaining skills
 
At least 3 or 4 land based dive ops in San Cristobal where they go to Leon Dormido, lots of big life, sharks, rays etc. Usually a boat going every second day if not every day, generally 100$ for 2dives.
On Santa Cruz even more land based operations, to Gordon rocks every day, where you would see even more life, a lot of hammerheads almost guaranteed. Usually 120$ two dives.
Walk around either of the two towns and I would be surprised if you dont sort out a good days diving within half an hour.
