Thor's Well At Sundown
In Norse mythology, Thor is the hammer-wielding god of thunder, lightning, storms, the protection of mankind. The thunderous sound emanating from this wave action is magnified by the huge gaping cave as wave action works through this geologic formation. Thor’s Well has a reputation for being extremely dangerous, but not any more dangerous than the surrounding jagged coast. The Pacific Ocean is fierce and truly unforgiving here.
Most incidents in the area happen by sneaker waves surprising visitors who are busy looking at the well. It is very close to the edge and waves come crashing over the coastline too. Just be sure you are aware of your surroundings the entire time you are there. I was really close to the well and never felt like I was in danger of being sucked in, but if you’re clumsy and prone to tripping, I would steer clear.
