About this swimming hole
San Pedro Springs is the nation's second-oldest public park, and its spring-fed pool has cooled San Antonians since the 1700s. The pool was rebuilt in stone in the 1920s around the historic springs, shaded by ancient cypress. It is history you can swim in, right in the middle of the city.
