About this swimming hole
A deep, cliff-ringed pool where Oak Creek squeezes between towering red rock walls just north of Sedona. Flat sandstone shelves make ideal sunbathing ledges, and the water is deep enough for confident swimmers and modest jumps. It fills fast on hot days, so weekday mornings are the sweet spot.
