Our trip there was awesome as well.  Neal Watson was great to dive with.  I might mention that the hammerheads aren't the only photo opportunity there.  The reef sharks and shallow water wrecks are also great.

French Polynesia might be an option (and IMO is better than other options mentioned here, especially for big stuff).   I'm not sure the logistics of getting to Tahiti from Europe (you may have a layover at LAX), but once you get there, it is a short 45 min - 1hr flight to Fakarava or Rangiroa, which definitely can meet all your criteria.

We are planning a trip right now -- I can't wait!

Just got back from my second liveaboard with the leak sentinel -- a 12-day Raja Ampat trip.  I had the Sentinel installed the whole trip and pressurized my Aquatica 7D housing 20-30 minutes before every dive.  It worked flawlessly the whole trip.

My partner Cameron spends a lot of time modelling for me underwater, especially when we cave dive together. This photo is certainly not my best from last year, but it's one of my favourites because it's just Cameron being himself in the water for a change.

 

Great shot.  Where was this taken?  It looks like he is wearing a dry suit, something you don't often see with tiger sharks....
