Saturday & Sunday, Aug. 20th, 21st, 2016
Mermet Springs is one of the great Midwest dive destinations that Toucan Dive really looks forward to going to…and Toucan Dive wants you to come along! Mermet Springs has just about everything a diver could want. It is in relative proximity of our area, making it logistically possible to get there, go diving, and get back to the Chicago area on Sunday evening.
Mermet Springs Attractions
Safety And Fun
Mermet Springs is a full service dive shop with gear rental, and airfills. There are pavillions that can be utilized to keep out of the sun, or liquid sunshine, to gear up. There are changing rooms, bathrooms and hot showers available as well. Finally, with so much diving and having fun, Mermet Springs is really focused on divers’ safety. O2 and first aid kits are available for any type of potential issue. The entire staff are wonderful and very helpful, which makes it a real pleasure for all of us that return again, and again.
The Particulars
This excursion includes your accommodations for 2 evenings at the Baymont Inn (double occupancy), your entry fees into Mermet Springs for both Saturday and Sunday, and the barbecue lunch on Saturday. The price for all this and all the fun is $135.00. Your deposit in the full amount is due by August 10th. For those that can leave early enough on Friday, you can join us at El Tequila Restaurant in Metropolis, Il at 8:00 PM for dinner as we put the final touches on our weekend plans.
