The Blue Hole in Santa Rosa is an absolute must-visit! Despite not taking a dip due to the chilly weather, the experience was nothing short of mesmerizing. The clarity and color of the water are out of this world - it's like peering into a different realm! It's a diver's paradise and a photographer's dream. The serene atmosphere and the natural beauty of the surroundings make it a perfect spot for a tranquil day out. Can't wait to return and actually swim in these enchanting waters. Highly recommend for anyone traveling through New Mexico!

Free , Blue hole its one of natural swimming holes, if you are a dare devil to jump and swim in a 81 feet down. Go for it but its on your risk . Its a nice place next to santa rosa convention center.

Made a stop here on a long trip headed to Cali from Texas. Kind of cool to see this in an area that made it seem very out of place. Chilly morning when we stopped off, and not many other sightseers were here. Would recommend it if you're in the area and need to stretch your legs from a lengthy drive.

Long drive from Denver... very popular with SCUBA classes. They say the H2O temperature is "a constant 60F"! Ah, that water was NOT 60 degrees... maybe 45F-50F! The tow is pretty much a ghost town except for one resteraunt and the hotels along Rte. 66.

Super cool stop on the way to Albuquerque from Oklahoma. We took a dip on one of the hottest days. Be prepared to feel alive, it's cold. Stop in Santa Rosa, NM.

We’ve been swimming here every chance we can for the last 10 years. It has always been crowded but at least now it’s more organized. They have a gift shop with a pretty decent selection, shirts, cups, stickers and whatnot that are reasonably priced. Clean restroom to change in. And the new parking lot looks so much better. They’ve added so many tables & I think 2 shaded pavilions. That cold water calls my name every summer. We spent 4 hours swimming in that ice bath Saturday. We got there at 9 & around 11:30 it was pretty crowded. Not uncomfortably but big difference between the No crowd at 9 to the family vans at 11am. Bring your sunscreen, goggles & a picnic then enjoy this chill spot while watch the scuba divers learn the game.

Not a far drive from panhandle texas. Although it is on route 66 so plenty of weekend traffic. Not a hard place to find but kind of confusing. So when you pull you'll need to park and either pay for water park across the street. Or pay for a parking pass. You can then drive around to a spot more convenient to water hole or just walk around from the station. In the station you can also change your clothes. It has some benches with shading but you could bring your own set up. Bring sandals or water shoes, lifevest for kiddos. It has a platform for some kind of surface sports. It has a bathroom by hole. So their is a smaller rock playform to jump off if the cliff is not your idea of fun. Their are scuba divers in the water the whole time. Beware that water is COLD! But its refreshing and beautiful. Lifeguards were on duty.
