We've done Lembongan / Penida, Tulamben, Amed, Pemuteran, Menjangan Is. All were good diving.
If you're talking a day trip from Kuta, then Tulamben would be a good option, if a long day. It could be done by a beginner. I believe that that there is also decent diving at Padang Bai,which would be closer.
If he has never dived at all, then he could just do a dive at Sanur. It wouldn't be the world's most spectacular diving, but it would be good enough for someone who'd never been before, closer and probably cheaper.
