Several good sites in the area. We used SCUBA Jamaica at the FDR Resort (the one at our hotel was really expensive and didn't offer dive packages), they were very professional, mixed in with a good sense of humour. The dive sites offered something for even an experienced diver, although this would be a good area to do your basic courses. The night diving requires a full length wetsuit(or you may get stung by jellies at the surface, like I did). The only issue were the non-native lion fish, which seem to be reproducing at an alarming rate. We enjoyed diving with the school so much, we're thinking of going back in a year or two.
