Victoria Falls Devil’s Pool – Swim on the Edge of the World

Victoria Falls Devil’s Pool – Swim on the Edge of the World

Take your adventure to the next level with a thrilling swim in Devil’s Pool, a natural rock pool right at the edge of Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Accessible only from the Zambian side, this unique experience is available during the dry season (usually mid-August to December), when water levels are low and conditions are safe. After a scenic boat ride to Livingstone Island, you’ll enjoy a guided swim to the pool, where you can sit just inches from the thundering edge of the falls. It’s an unforgettable combination of natural beauty, adrenaline, and awe. Perfect for the adventurous traveler seeking a once-in-a-lifetime moment!

The Experience

Begin your journey with a short boat ride across the Zambezi River to Livingstone Island, where David Livingstone first set eyes on the falls. After a guided walk and safety briefing, you’ll swim in shallow waters across a short stretch of the river to reach Devil’s Pool.

Once there, prepare for the ultimate thrill: sitting right at the edge of the roaring Victoria Falls, with just a natural rock barrier between you and a 100-meter drop. It’s one of the most exhilarating and photogenic spots on Earth!
