Hey, first I think you might tell us where you are staying. It depends on if you are in town, south, or north...
I dove with Dive Paradise (once) and Del Mar Aquatics (6 days). They were both OK. You probably want a company with enough business that they don't lump the begginers with intermediate divers. The busier ones are likely to have night dives daily. Check with Dive Paradise, I think they are busier than Del Mar.

I've used Dive Paradise & Sand Dollar Sports and have no complaints. I was in Coz last October and stayed at Scuba Club. The dive operation there is excellent.
Go to the Cozumel section. You will see Blue XT Sea to be among the highest recommended, but there are many others that are highly recommended.

I have no personal experience yet, but I just did my cert. dive in Catalina and chatted with some of the local divers. I guy that worked at Flip's said he loved this organization. http://www.bluebubble.com/ His description of the whole experience sounded awesome. Good luck and have a great time!

When I was in Coz I dove with Aqua Safari... it was my first boat/ocean dive...and they took care of me very well. I was in a group of mixed experienced divers and no one had any complaints about the dive operation.

c555:
I highly recommend BlueXT. I dove with a couple ops while I was there, and the difference between BuleXT, and the the other op, that I will not name, was huge. Part of that was because Christi did such a good job of keeping experienced divers together.
But there was a part that I can not explain. I dove a couple sites with BlueXT, and we had magical dives. Then I dove them with Op X, and they were great, but hardly the same dive. Maybe this was luck, or karma, I don't know.
What I should say is that if you do four dives with BlueXT a day, they will put bottom time a priority, make sure the surface intervals are long to do the next dive with max BT, and then again in the afternoon. They also cater to the diver demands. We did a LOT of deep diving, and if that means we end up with a day that extends into the evening, so be it!
I have nothing but great things to say about BlueXT, Margo (Hector), Pedro, Arturo, Cristi, and the entire BlueXT staff. They worked their tails off for us!
