Barton Springs

1comment

The park has a swimming hole, a sunbathing area (some nude), a cruisy open air dress and shower area, and active bushes up- stream. Most of the action in the warmer months centers on the showers and is busiest late afternoons. If you follow the creek upstream, there are bushes which are active year round.

Best time
Late afternoons.
Watch out
When school is out, the swimming area is full of children.

Have lots of potential but, to be honest, don't bother! Its huge and its not exactly clear where is the cruising hots-spots. So many family, children, straight couple and straight joggers.
