I've been to Miami several times and gone diving there while on vacations from Chicago.\n\nBut since my dive buddy moved from there about six months ago, I haven't been back.

Snorkeling.  I love to see the little fishes.

The best by far is BSAC, but if you've got to choose between PADI and NAUI my vote goes to PADI only because it is more commonly recognised in more countries - and scuba is a truly international pastime.\n\nHappy bubbling!

If you are referring to Scuba diving agencies (ie. PADI, SSI, NAUI, etc), the major ones all meet a mimimum standard of skills required to be Open Water certified.  While there are some differences, the biggest factor in your traininig with these agencies will be the instructor.\n\nI would also recommend the course that has the most in water time.   It is tempting to go with the cheapest and fastest training, but the more time/practice you have, the better diver you will be.\n\nPlease see the included source for questions to ask an instructor and have a great time!\n\nBut since you ask about schools, if you are in the Los Angeles area, you are lucky.  The LA County program is one of the oldest (if not the oldest) programs in the US, the recognized as being the most thorough.  This program exceeds the standards of the other more popular agencies (PADI, SSI, NAUI, etc.)

You do not have to be a "stong" or "excellent" swimmer to dive or to snorkel. The important thing is that you are comfortable in the water and aren't claustrophobic with a mask on your face having your nose covered, as you will breathe through your mouth only.\n\nIn both scuba and snorkelling you use your legs and the fins on your feet to move, not your hands.\n\nIn snorkelling you can we an inflatable vest that will keep you afloat while allowing you to move. In scuba diving the whole idea is to move slowly and not exert yourself. That way you conserve air and get to stay down longer and see more.

I've been there several times as I lived nearby for six years. You can rent kayaks, snorkel, and dive in several places along the keys. I went snorkeling off of Key Largo and there's plenty to see. If you are interested in seeing sharks I recommend getting a kayak and go to Cudjoe Key which is a few miles up from Key West. Expect to see black tip reef and nurse sharks, sting rays are plenty. If you snorkel, watch for jellies, they will leave you itching. \n\nI don't know of any camping on the keys but if you have the time I believe you can overnight at the Dry Tortugas which is off the coast of Key West therefore only accessible by plane or boat, this former military fort site has excellent snorkeling.  Best place to get a sunrise/sunset pic is there and another good sunset pic would be from Mallory Square in Key West. Be sure to catch the Sunset Celebration every night at Mallory Square, too! Sunrise pics are best from the east side of any island. There are plenty of web sites you can get info from. Don't forget sunscreen!!!
