Directly across the road, entrance fee is less than $0.50/person, this Olympic-style public swimming pool is relatively quiet on weekdays. The best part is it is completely chemical-free; fed by one of the many pure water springs in the area, you will see little fish as you swim. Note-modest swimwear is recommended in order to fit in :). And a little waterpark is due to open mid 2019 right next door!
