Lady Bird Lake in Austin may look inviting for a swim, but don’t even think about jumping in—swimming here is illegal and carries a $500 fine, thanks to deadly hidden dangers like debris, strong currents, and toxic algae that’s even killed dogs. The ban, enacted in 1964 after two sisters drowned, remains in place despite the lake’s popularity for kayaking and paddleboarding. With past flood closures and ongoing risks, swimming is off the table forever—so grab your towel and head to Barton Springs or Deep Eddy Pool instead.
