If you’re ever in Zimbabwe, don’t miss the chance to take a swim in The Devil’s Pool, a small lagoon, enclosed by rocks, on the edge of one of the biggest, most beautiful waterfalls in the world, Victoria Falls. Set on Livingstone Island, at a height of 103 meters, Devil’s Pool is definitely one of the most surreal locations on Earth.

Heard quite a few people get colon diseases and weird skin infections from getting scratched from the rocks after they go in there. You won’t get that info from a travel agent.

that scary but if you think like that you’ll never get to enjoy life, through the hospital. great picture though
I can see maybe letting adults swim in that but kids? Isn’t that quite dangerous??
… te apetece un chapuzón ?? …
Little known fact: You can do the same thing at Niagara Falls in USA/Canada.
Widely known fact:
You most certainly can not do that at Niagara Falls in USA/Canada.
Sorry Poobar, but you’re dead wrong on the Niagara falls idea. People are separated from the water by an iron barricade, and a few feet of shore. The force of the water even 100 feet from the edge is enough to suck you over. The formation of a wall and a shallow spot creating slower flow allows Devil’s Pool to be safe.
I’d love to see you try swimming at Niagara… just give me your bank card and pass code first, lol.
I live in Niagara Falls and you absolutely cannot do that. You wouldnt even know what hit you if you got in. And there is no iron barricade either. Theres an iron fence at the main part but like 10 feet away you could jump in if you wanted to.
