Devil’s Pool, Victoria Falls

As exciting, and it is very exciting, to watch the falls drop and crash into the water, from below; it is even more exhilarating to peer over the edge of one or even feel yourself swimming up to the edge.
One place that it is possible to do the latter is at what is named Devil’s Pool at Victoria Falls. The pool is formed every year after the dry season lowers the water levels. Dare you take a plunge into the little pool? There is just a small rocky rim that forms a barrier between the pool and the 100 metre drop of the falls.
