Historical Notes
The Georgetown Blue Hole on the San Gabriel River is a deep, spring-influenced pool that the city reopened for managed public swimming after years of informal use. TPWD Magazine's companion article on state-park swimming holes highlights Georgetown Blue Hole as a model for urban river access. Limestone bluffs shade portions of the pool. Check City of Georgetown parks for seasonal hours, fees, and reservation requirements.
