A hands-on gemstone dig beside the aquarium, with a cave-themed mini-golf round to follow.
Why it’s worth it
The Waterfront shop is a bag-and-scoop gemstone experience that sits near the Two Oceans Aquarium, with the company also selling rough and polished stones, fossils and jewellery. Cave Golf is run from the same operator, and the website notes the last round starts 45 minutes before closing. It is a short, tactile stop that pairs well with the aquarium next door.
