Hi trapper1981,
I started diving in SE FL in 2004 and did a few over 100 dives out of Key Largo through 2009. The shallow reefs and the Benwood would be great for beginner divers.
I discovered Boynton Beach and Jupiter in 2009 and have nearly 200 dives there. Drift diving in these locations is spectacular and has become among my favorites. Sounds like this is the where you will be diving. In my personal opinion, you may want to start off with some drifts in Boynton Beach. The reef is fantastic with depths around 60 ft. I would recommend Underwater Explorers as a great operator for both beginners and experienced divers alike. They take a maximum of 6 divers and as much attention as needed is available. Kevin Metz is nearly always in the water as DM and official flag schlepper. Boynton Beach is only 30 miles south of Jupiter and an easy drive down 95. After some dive experience, including drifts, Jupiter would be a great place to dive. I have had good experiences with JDC. Feel free to PM me with any questions.
Best of luck and good diving, Craig
