as a minimum get certified as far as advanced open water. your cert card will be accepted most any dive shop.
reef diving is great . do not have to go very deep which allows much longer dives.
rig diving is dangerous esp if there is a current. I sold my tanks because almost lost a couple people that drifted off

Have enjoyed reading this thread, and it sadly reminds of of a grad school classmate and later work colleague who died some years back while rig spearfishing off the LA coast. He was smart guy and a very experienced diver. I seem to recall it was speculated he speared a large fish that dragged him into the rig structure and he may have been knocked out in the process - none of his divemates saw what happened - he just didn’t surface when he should have.
