SPRING 2023 #TEXASTODOS
BEAT THE HEAT ON THE WATER
As the weather warms up, the state's more than 11,000 rivers and streams offer refreshing ways to cool down. River tubing is a favorite pastime for native Texans and visitors alike, and one of the best times to grab an inner tube and float down the river is spring. Texas has a waterway to fit any style, whether you're seeking the thrill of the rapids, the excitement of tube chutes or the relaxation of a leisurely float.
San Marcos River - San Marcos, Texas
The crystal-clear San Marcos River is fed by hundreds of springs near the city center and remains 72 degrees year-round, so spring is an ideal time to beat the crowds that flock to the river each summer. There are numerous tube rental outfitters ready to service groups of any size. Visitors can bring their coolers and styrofoam-free beverage containers on their river excursion. After the float, Rio Vista Park offers an idyllic spot for a picnic.
