Coco View Resort - includes food, 2 boats/day, and unlimited shore diving (wreck and two walls). Nice venue for instruction using the shore dive! Estimated from Detroit: $2628, but traveling mid-week can save a bunch.
Scuba Club Cozumel - includes food and 2-tank boat per day, unlimited shore diving (but is just OK shore). Estimate from Detroit: $1720. Mostly drift diving, so a little less easy for instruction.
I drove to Key Largo several times. If you want to stay in the USA, it is a great choice. Estimate from Detroit (driving): $2069. Good reefs for instruction.
My estimates included airfare or gas, food, 7 nites stay, various number of dives, plus 2 nights during road trip from Michigan to Florida. Dives included 5+ dives per day at CocoView, 3+ per day at Scuba Club Cozumel, or 2 per day in Key Largo. CocoView is the best deal in total cost per dive, since the shore diving is so nice. Key Largo is the most per dive, since there is no shore diving. Scuba Club Cozumel is in the middle, since the shore dive is just OK.
