Sunset from Burleigh Heads
Watch the sunset from one of the Gold Coast's best vantage points at Burleigh Heads — set up a picnic or simply pop into one of the local bars or restaurants.
Natural Bridge Glow Worms
Visit the Natural Bridge in the Numinbah Valley after sunset and you'll be dazzled by the glow worms blanketing the cave ceiling. Summer is the best time to go, when warm, wet weather brings out more worms.
Bring a torch for the stairs — but never shine it directly at the glow worms. Keep an eye out on the walk in too, as you may spot some between the rocks along the path.
