Saturday & Sunday, April 22nd & 23rd, 2017
Mermet Springs is one of the great Midwest dive destinations. Toucan Dive really looks forward to going there, and Toucan Dive wants you to come along! Going there in the early spring is so much warmer than it is in the Chicago area. It’s quite nice both above and below the water line. Mermet Springs has just about everything a diver could want. It is in relative proximity of our area. This makes it logistically possible to get there, go diving, and get back to the Chicago area on Sunday evening.
