[2025 Livingstone ] Travel Guide for Devil's Pool (Updated Apr)

Devil's Pool is a naturally formed rock pool, named "Devil's Pool" because it is located at the top of the 110-meter-high Victoria Falls. Only in the dry season from September to October every year, the water volume of the pool is relatively small and relatively calm, and there is no waterfall left along the rock wall. In the flood season from March to May each year, the water flow is 15 times that of the dry season. Therefore, usually tourists have to jump into the pool to swim in the dry season. But there are plenty of extreme sports enthusiasts and intrepid swimmers who come to the pool during flood season for a thrilling "devil" experience. In fact, although the name of "Devil's Pool" is daunting, but because it is surrounded by rocks, tourists do not need to worry about their own safety. Tourists who have experienced it themselves in the pool say that apart from the roaring water around them, the "Devil's Pool" in the dry season is not as dangerous as it sounds.
