Deep Eddy Pool, Historic swimming pool in Austin, United States
Deep Eddy Pool maintains consistent water temperatures between 68 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit through natural springs that feed into the swimming area.
Established in 1915 by A.J. Eilers Sr., Deep Eddy Pool earned recognition as the oldest public swimming pool in Texas and received National Register of Historic Places status.
The pool's name originates from a natural formation in the Colorado River where a large rock created a swirling water pattern near the current location.
The facility includes a ten-lane lap pool measuring 100 feet in length and a separate one-acre wading area with gradual beach-style entry for families.
Natural underground springs continuously supply fresh water to the pool, which then flows back into Lady Bird Lake through an approved circulation system.
