Swimming in Devils Pool is a seasonal activity available only when water levels in the Zambezi River are sufficiently low as to allow for safe swimming. Although the period varies each year, this is normally between late August and early January. The Livingstone Island tour is also seasonal and available only when water levels in the Zambezi River are low enough to allow safe access to the Island. This is usually between early July and early March. You don’t need to be a strong swimmer as the current is slow. Spare swimming costumes are available in case you felt you weren’t brave enough, but suddenly work up the courage. Be sure to book ahead for this tour as there is limited spots.
