Paddle at midnight in Barcelona
Who wouldn’t want to see a view of the Barcelona skyline at night? Not only does it sound romantic, but it’s certainly unique, too. After hopping on a paddleboard and taking to the ocean, you’ll be able to see the marine life below your feet as it’s lit by LED lights (so cool!). As part of a group of 12, you’ll then enjoy a delicious dinner under the stars.
Where: Port Olimpic, Barcelona
How much: £86.05

Not only has the thermal mud and acidic sulphurous waters been used by local Maori for bathing for the past 800 years, but it’s also home to some of the most unique geothermal areas in the world. And after smoothing your skin with mud, you can take a plunge in one of the waterfalls.
