The Antarctic Attraction
Fantastic show - drive on the ice tractor depicts just what it is like to drive on ice in Antarctica.
The 4D movie of the ship travelling to the South Pole is so realistic, you even get showered with spray coming over the bow of the ship. Seats move with the ships movement over the waves.

Moeraki Boulders
An early whaling station settlement (1836) but the surprise is the large round boulder half buried in the sand, some cracked apart being washed by the incoming and outgoing tide.
How they came to be here is a good question.
