Georgetown spot

Blue Hole Park

Georgetown's downtown lagoon on the South Fork of the San Gabriel River, about five blocks north of the Square.

About Blue Hole Park

Blue Hole Park is Georgetown's signature downtown swim stop. It sits on the South Fork of the San Gabriel River and keeps the water day close to the Square instead of turning it into a long drive.

That downtown setting is what makes Blue Hole work as its own destination. The swim stop, the river setting, and the city base all fit into one compact trip pattern.
