I can provide you with a location that satisfies all of your 
requirements but the depth limitations.  Try the Brac Reef Lodge
on Cayman Brac.  Nice people, a well run dive operation - local
people, not a chain - and some absolutly stupendous diving
just off shore.  Seldom more than a 15 minute boat ride.


Now (woe!) the problem is that the first dive of the day is
generally to 100 feet.  However, I would not worry.  The 
visibility is 100 feet plus, and there is really no
additional risk.  The divemaster is very safety conscious
and their response to problems is highly professional.
