GLOW WORMS
Put the caving adventure on your date-to-do, because the sight of a thousand luminous worms is magical. You can opt for a guided abseiling tour, kayak in from the river or just walk off the beaten track a little and discover these mesmerising creatures by the boatload.
You may need to crouch down, squeeze through some tight spaces and get a little Sméagol to find these precious beings, but when you do, you'll be filled with wonder! Prepare to be amazed.
