You'll moor at a sandbank for an hour, where on a good day, you can swim with the seals in clean, shallow water.

Badger watching

Where: Dorset
For a night-time family adventure, head to Dorset, where from a hide, you can watch badgers emerge from their setts deep in the ground to forest for food. The area is floodlit so you'll have perfect sight of the badgers, and there's a 100% sighting record. You'll probably also spot owls, foxes, rabbits and bats. You and your family can stay in the hide overnight, so don't forget to take a torch for the walk back.
Price: Adults £12, Children £10.
