Warnings
Two deaths here in 2019 and 2021 from hitting rock. The water is deep but there is a shallow shelf, and people get hurt by not jumping far enough out. Check every landing from the water first.
Access
From Nine Mile Falls take South Bank Road west; it turns to dirt, bear left at the fork to the parking area (high clearance helps). About 0.7 miles on foot to the cove.
Best conditions
July and August.
