Swimming holes in Western Mexico offer a range of options, from crystal-clear waters to towering tree companions. La Selvita, located 42 miles east of Guadalajara, boasts a 3-hectare pool fed by spring water, perfect for swimming with its old Montezuma bald cypresses dotting the landscape. The entrance fee is just 60 pesos and camping accommodations are available.
For those seeking a waterfall experience, Los Azules near Tequila, Jalisco, provides clean, warm water at the base of picturesque cascades. The 30-minute walk to the falls is well worth it, though visitors must be prepared for a steep, challenging trail. Access to the canyon may be difficult due to poor GPS reception, so it's advisable to travel with a local guide.
