Jacob’s Well is a significant karstic spring, the largest perennial spring in the Texas Hill Country. It flows from the most extensive underwater cave in Texas, opening in the bed of Cypress Creek, a few miles north of Wimberley, Texas.The twelve foot (four meter) diameter mouth of the cave serves as a popular swimming and water recreation spot for the local land owners whose properties adjoin Cypress Creek. From the opening in the creek bed, Jacob’s Well descends vertically for about thirty feet (ten meters), continuing from there at an angle as a series of chambers separated by narrow, often deeply silted and unstable necks, ultimately reaching a depth of at least one hundred and twenty feet (forty meters).





In the northeast portion of Wimberley, Texas, is a hidden place known as Jacob's Well, a perennial karstic spring that's become quite a popular swimming spot for locals. The spring's mouth has a 12-foot diameter and about 30 feet of vertical depth before it hits an angle, making it a perfect diving spot, as local Mitch Bergsma figured out.

Mitch Bergsma, currently residing in Austin, Texas, is an avid YouTuber who enjoys sharing his knowledge on things like scooters, wakeboarding, and scuba diving. As a big fan of GoPro, Mitch took his camera and filmed a day of free diving into Jacob's Well. The views he captured are absolutely incredible.
