Taniwha Cave is a sort of water sports experience. The cave is visited by inner tubes, which are used to float on the cave river. The cave has plenty of glow worms, and the tube floats give visitors the chance to have a close look.
This underground rafting is called black water rafting instead of white water rafting, to tell it happens underground, in an unlighted cave.
Taniwha is a dragon from Maori legends, who is said to have lived in a cave. So Taniwha cave may be translated into Dragons Cave.
