This seemingly bottomless hole swallows the seawater around it and then forcefully shoots it upward, creating a spectacle that is both mesmerizing and dangerous. Formed by the power of the ocean waves eroding a basalt shoreline, Thor's Well is at its most dramatic at high tide or during storms. While it is a popular subject for photographers, it is also a reminder of the Pacific's raw power and the intricate beauty of geological formations influenced by the sea.
