Meadows Center for Water and Environment, San Marcos, Texas

★★★★☆ (5,889)

At the headwaters of the San Marcos River, more than 200 artesian springs bubble up to form Spring Lake. Here, human history stretches back more than 12,000 years to the last ice age and natural history even further. Spring Lake is a jewel for divers.

Crystal-clear lake that remains a constant 72 degrees year-round with seven threatened and endangered species.
