Located just 15 minutes south of Downtown Houston, 288 Lake is a freshwater sports training facility and outdoor event venue.

The 20-acre facility featuring the pristine, spring-fed lake is a great place to maintain that competitive edge in the water for locals and those visiting Houston. Individuals and groups of up to 200 can visit 288 Lake to train or simply enjoy the lush surroundings. Five docks, a sandy beach shore, six sunken boats, training platforms and more provide divers a great place to hone their skills. 288 Lake is available to certified divers, and those interested in kayaking and open water swimming.

The spring/aquifer-fed water at the lake is naturally filtered, providing visibility ranges from four to 25 feet. The environment is also rife with plant and animal life.

288 Lake also offers seasonal swim passes and is available for groups and special events.
