Anywhere in the Great Lakes. Cold fresh water keeps the wrecks in very good shape, even the schooners from the 1850's. Ice diving in winter is a hoot too. ( I'm a wreck head)
Tropical destination? Cozumel, Mexico. Great reef system (part of the 2nd largest barrier reef in the world), cheap, great diving shops/charters, cavern diving on the mainland avaliable, Mayan ruins on the island and just about everyone visiting there is going to be a fellow diver.

The spiegel grove in Key Largo, Florida. It is the largest sunken ship in the world. When they sank it a few years ago the made a mistake, and the ship was laid on its side. The cool thing is that last year a hurricane came through the keys and made the ship stand up straight like it was originally suppose to be!

The maldives or the Red Sea. The Maldives because it is abundent with all sorts of tropical fish and whale sharks and the Red Sea as it is also full of different fish but there are also some rare fish there, I have seen a crocodile fish there very fare....
