Hike and Swim

A great swimming hole in the Santa Cruz moutains of California, the Garden of Eden lives up to its name. This swimming hole is popular among all ages and offers beaches perfect for sunbathing and some nice cliffs perfect for jumping into the blue pool below. Be sure to pack out all garabage, and know that campfires are not allowed in this area. There are multiple pools at the Garden of Eden, offering a swimming spot for everyone. Sometimes this spot is mistaken for Big Rock Hole which is another swimming hole further down the river.
