ʻO ka "City That Charms" heʻoiaʻiʻo maoli nō ia i nā mahina kau mahina
ʻO San Marcos kekahi o nā kūlanakauhale liʻiliʻi loa ma Texas. Aia ma ka moku Texas Hill Country, he wahi pōkole loaʻo San Marcos mai Austin a San Antonio.
ʻO San Marcos, kahi home o Texas State University (ʻo ia hoʻiʻo Southwest Texas State a me nā haumāna e pili ana i ka Pelekikena Lyndon Baines Johnson), he'ahikaʻi huakaʻi kaulana i kēia makahiki a puni,ʻo ke kauwela kahi i hoʻomālamalama maoli aiʻo San Marcos. ʻO ka hana waho ka mea e huki i ka poʻe malihini kipa i San Marcos i kēlā me kēia kauwela.
ʻO kekahi o nāʻoihana kaulana i ka wai ma ka moku'āina, kaʻokiʻana i ka muliwaiʻo San Marcos, kahi i hoʻonohonohoʻia ma San Marcos. Eia hou,ʻo ka poʻe kayakers, nā kalo, nā snorkelers, a me nā meaʻauʻau waʻa e hauʻoli e pāʻani i ka wai mālie a mālie o Guadalupe, a me nā kahawaiʻo San Marcos a me Blanco.
ʻO nā wahi hoʻokipa nui loa kahi e pili ana i ka muliwai. Ua lōʻihi ka manawa o ka Hale Kuʻomaʻomaʻa i mea makemake nui. ʻOiai kahi paʻa a me ka mea iʻikeʻiaʻo Liquarena,ʻo ke Keʻena Waihoonaʻo ia ka mea e hoʻohanaʻia nei e ka Moku'āinaʻo Texas State me ka manaʻo e aʻo i ka lehulehu e pili ana i ka San Marcos River a me Edwards Aquifer. Eia nō naʻe, e mau ana ka nui o nā hiʻohiʻona kaulana o ka Liʻalanilena, aia ma keʻano nui loa ka holoʻana o ka moku hāmaʻa kaulana loa ma nā kaha mākuʻu o San Marcos. Wahi a New Braunfels kahi home o ka Schlitterbahn Waterpark, e hāʻawi ana i nā malihini i kahi manawa'ē aʻe e maloʻo ai.
Eia naʻe,ʻoiai ka nui o ka laʻa o San Marcos i loko o ka wai, he nui nā mea e hana ai ke noho maloʻo.
Hōʻike ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike o ka Hōʻailona i nā polokalamu kauhale, nā polokalamu hoʻolālā hoʻonaʻauao, kahi wao nahele, nā holo kaʻaahi a me nā hana'ē aʻe no kaʻohana holoʻokoʻa, nā mea a pau e pili ana i kahi ana kūlohelohe i hanaʻia e kahi hela nui i hala ma mua o ka Balcones Fault. Eia hou, kūʻai ka kūʻai i nā malihini mai ka moku a ma waho o San Marcos.
Ma mua o kona nui, nā hale kūʻai kūikawā i loko a puni o ka Hale Hōokolokolo, uaʻikeʻiaʻo San Marcos no ka nui o nā hale kūʻai puka.
ʻAʻole pilikia kahi e noho ai ma San Marcos. Loaʻa piha ke kūlanakauhale i nā hōkele a me nā motel āpau. Eia naʻe, he nui nā poʻe koho e koho i kahi mea iʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka Crystal River Inn, kahi hale o Victorian i ka makahiki 1883.
