This year’s Connects isn’t just about great science—it’s about experiencing one of the most geologically and culturally rich cities in the U.S.!
Why San Antonio?
San Antonio sits where the Texas Hill Country meets the coastal plain, shaped by 300 million years of geologic history. Groundwater from the Balcones Fault Zone gave life to the city—and today, you can explore amazing sites like:
-
Natural Bridge Caverns – underground karst wonders
-
Enchanted Rock – hike a massive pink granite dome
-
The Balcones Fault Zone – see where marine limestones meet younger Cenozoic deposits
Culture, History & Texas Charm
When you’re not geologizing, stroll The Alamo, wander the lively River Walk, and enjoy world-class Tex-Mex in this UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy.

So—what are YOU bringing to San Antonio?
Your research? Your hiking boots? Your appetite? (Hopefully all three!)
See You in San Antonio!
