9 Swimming Spots Near LA That Aren’t The Beach (part 1)

LA offers so many breathtaking beaches, but just a few know that LA also offers amazing sources of water where you can take a refreshing dip. There are plenty of swimming holes near the city to cool down from the Southern Californian sun. Let’s take a look below! Stay tuned for part 2.

Malibu Creek Rock Pool

Take a dip in the volcanic swimming hole. There is also 8,000 acres of beautiful scenery which includes jagged peaks, oak and sycamore woodlands, tallgrass hills and biking trails!

WARNING: Diving injuries at the park’s Rock Pool are a common occurrence which is why it is ILLEGAL. Rocks concealed beneath the murky waters can cause serious harm, and in some cases death.

Hermit Fall

Be prepared to climb down to get to the swimming hole! With people trekking up and down the rocks can get a bit slippery, so be careful and hold onto the rope for extra safety.

Bridge to Nowhere

The 5-mile hike can be a bit tiring, but you’ll feel on top of the world once you get to the actual bridge that leads to… nowhere. But that’s not completely true considering if you climb below the bridge you’ll find a number of blue swimming holes that scream: “swim in me!”
