Best Swimming Hole
Barton Springs Pool
There have been photography exhibits about it, books bound in its honor, and people have moved here after taking one swim in it. Barton Springs isn't just a swimming hole; it's a state of mind, a body of water with magnetic pull, and summers in Austin wouldn't be the same without it. Dive, lap, or float – the springs won't judge you.
