I’ll be in Austin tomorrow and am going for a swim in the early afternoon - around 12:30 or 1. Looking to swim for 30-40 minutes. Can’t decide between Deep Eddy and Barton Springs. Thoughts??
Thoughts? Wish I could go for a swim, too, but, alas, must work. :-\
Have you been to either one before? If not…must go to Barton Springs. Water temp is about the same at both (68F) but maybe a little warmer at Deep Eddy. If you want more of an interval type workout…Deep Eddy as it is set up like a lap swim pool (though it is 33 yds per length).

What Missy said. To add to it, there is also Stacy Pool off of Live Oak near South Congress if you want something a little bit warmer. I think that they are open now. You might want to google ‘cit of austi pools’ and check the parks and rec page to make sure if you don’t go to BS or Deep Eddy.
