    There are loads of centres around Dublin. I'd highly recommend Ocean Divers. They were the first dive centre in Dublin and have some excellent instructors... based out in Dun Laoghaire but do courses on both south and north side of Dublin.

    Also check out PADI website. they will also have a list of centres and their status' listed on their webpage (however will not be an exclusive list of centres in your area)
