Good dive operator in SoCal

I have some family who want to get certified - they live right at Dana Point and are looking for some advice on dive operators to do it with. Prefer the small mom and pop shop to the big boys.

Mahalos in advance

Please remember to use the proper forums for posts.

Apologies! I didn't look at all the forums and figured that question would be good for The Galley - "introduce yourselves and talk about anything?"

Please move it to the proper place!

Aloha
