Hey Floyd, I can vouch for what Baja Dive says. We just completed our third day of diving with Baja Dive, and they were just what you are looking for, and more...non-rushed diving in great conditions...compared to Vancouver! 
The air temp this week was in the 70s to 80s, the water temp is about 70F. I dove in a 5 mm wet suit with a 6 mm vest / 4 mm hood and was very comfortable. The beginning of the week it was the normal cold wind from the north, which picked up as the day went on. We did 2 dives, but three would have been easy and Baja Dive would be happy to comply. Today the wind shifted, it was from the south and much warmer, air temps in the high 80s. Warmer between dives, but the chop got so bad that the port closed around noon...no boats allowed out. We were able to complete our dives without incident.
At this time of year, you will dive outside the harbor at Cabo San Lucas, to Land's End, and not the Cabo Pulmo or Gordo's. You'll get used to the constant sound of props and motors as the diving walls are next to the boat channel. But there is plenty of sea life to see.
Baja Dive owner and Dee and divemaster Carlos took very good care of us, and showed us some incredible sights, including the Sand Falls at Agenado Rock, a fun drift dive off the wall at Land's End, and a bunch of eels, lobsters, Hawkfish, King Angelfish, etc. As someone else noted, the fish here are much less camera-shy that at other locations. Baja Dive doesn't have the fanciest boat here (back roll entry), but it's plenty big to handle the waves and it's roomier than most dive boats. What they lack in size they make up for in personal attention. You will not be rushed.
Have fun.
