Flash flood at Venus Pools Maui

  • I have a video of a crazy flash flood that happened at Venus pools on Maui. I was getting to jump off the 30 ft rock into the tide pool when my buddy yelled "STOP!, do you hear rushing water upstream?" I faintly heard it too and then saw a couple a quarter mile up stream pointing at the river jumping up and down pointing at the river. I instantly started yelling for my 2 friends and another tourist couple to get out of the water. The only way out is climbing up the rocks where the water came down. I started recording seconds after they were out and safe.

    Pay attention to the mountains. If the mountains is raining and dark , you don't go hiking or swimming. Locals 101.

      Anywhere in the tropics, especially on mountain streams and waterfalls. It might be sunny where you're splashing around at but it could've rained further on up. A flash flood cutting through steel gradients moves incredibly fast.

    This is how people have died, and will continue to die. These floods are surprising because they come from heavy rain some distance away, in the mountains, and (as seen here) there often is no rain at all where the flood ends up.

    Oh wow, I saw a video a few days ago that was shot further up the stream, half-dozen people were in there when a flash flood was coming, and two people took their time. They were swept down the falls and into the cauldron, and then the video ended. Where it ended it felt like they were banged up but alive, and in this video, that cauldron looks mean, too. I wonder what happened to those folks.

      @A L Only good thing about tourist going here is they lose their go pros, sunglasses, watches, jewelry, etc. Then the locals get to go dive the pool and find it. Other than that, tourist deviate from the trail all the time, especially the minute they see someone walking to another spot, they will follow in hopes of finding secret beaches. I agree with hokulani. That is all private land owned by hana ranch. If these deaths keep happening then it will get closed to tourist for good, just like 7 pools at Oheo in Kipahulu.
