Austin Beaches

When you think of Austin, beaches might not be the first thing that comes to mind, but this city has some hidden gems waiting to be discovered. One such gem is Barton Springs Pool, a natural spring-fed pool in Zilker Park. The cool waters are perfect for a refreshing dip on a hot day.

For those looking for a beach experience without leaving the city limits, head to Lake Travis. This expansive lake offers sandy shores, water activities like kayaking and paddleboarding, and breathtaking views of the surrounding hills.

If you're up for a short drive outside Austin, go to Hippie Hollow Park on Lake Travis. As Texas' only clothing-optional park, it's known for its rocky cliffs and clear waters - a unique spot for sunbathing and swimming in nature's beauty.
