While the 15-foot drop of this waterfall is not particularly impressive, the large, blue pool at its base continues to attract hikers and swimmers eager to cool off from the heat. Here, you can easily spend hours swimming and splashing around. The lower falls are also much safer than the strong currents from the upper falls. However, If the stream is particularly heavy, then it is still recommended to swim further downstream to avoid the circular potholes.
