About this Spring
The main spring boil is a 90-foot-diameter, roughly 12-foot-deep pool with clear blue water issuing from a cavernous limestone vent (the "Ballroom") on its east side, a popular swimming, snorkeling, and cavern-diving destination on the Santa Fe River with an extensive underwater cave system.
