These stunning pools have
been formed by the Havasu Falls, and are a popular spot for cliff
jumping. The crystal blue waters can be found deep in the Grand Canyon,
and can only be reached via a long, treacherous hike.
To
visit, you'll need to make reservations through the Havasupai
Reservation, though with growing popularity, they're becoming harder and harder to get.

Hamilton
Pool is one of the most well-known swimming holes in America. It's
only 23 miles from Austin, making it a perfect summer getaway for
locals as well as visitors. Part of the pool lies under a cavernous roof from
which small waterfalls sometimes create a picturesque curtain.
