Red Rock Pool Details
This swimming hole on the bend of the Santa Ynez River is a popular place for cliff jumpers. Some of the surrounding rocks tower 35-feet high, which makes for a heart-racing adventure as you plunge straight into the flowing waters below. But watch as the water level can be dangerously low during summer. The surrounding scenery of forest and mountain are also stunning. Although it can get crowded on weekends, it is still one of the most peaceful places to swim in nature.
