The Venus Pool, or Waioka Pond, is a beautiful pool that is partially blocked off from the ocean surf. When the tides are high enough, the water from the ocean pounds over the wall and brings ocean water in and out of the pond. The rocks surrounding the pool make for excellent cliff jumping, which both Justin and Chris got to experience first hand. I, on the other hand, had to work myself up by screaming out loud in order to jump off of a 6 foot ledge...lol.
