Half Day Low Isles Snorkling Tour fra Port Douglas

A lovely ½ day spent out snorkelling the low isles with a small group of tourists. This tour gets out to the island before any of the other boats so you have a good 20-30 mins as the only tour group on the island. The snorkelling tour was great - the guide was very friendly and provided lots of interesting information about the area and the sea creatures we encountered. While we were on our snorkelling tour, the captain was taking others around on a glass bottom boat tour. would have been great for that to be offered twice during the trip so that you could view the reef from above and below the water. After these tours we still had a good hour or so to snorkel independently. There was also a guided walking tour of the island (optional) to see the lighthouse and learn more about the island and the fauna that inhabit the Low Isles. Once back on board you were offered a light snack of apple muffins, tea and coffee and plain Arnott's Biscuits (yuk!)

Great trip and a fantastic opportunity to visit a heritage sight and snorkel with the fish!

Excellent staff and experience. We got super lucky with the weather. Great experience and well recommends to anyone who wants to visit the reef :)

Me and my sister did this whilst in Port Douglas and it was a real highlight. The guides were all fantastic, informative and personable. The glass bottom boat part was really interesting to learn about the reef. I had never done snorkelling before but found it really easy and within seconds was swimming with turtles, Lemon Sharks and countless beautiful fish directly beneath me. Unfortunately my waterproof phone pouch wasn’t letting me take underwater photos so I’d recommend taking an underwater camera. The wildlife takes your breath away. Everything you need is supplied and light refreshments are given on the return journey on the boat. Also of note was the little tour of the island. Half a day was perfect for us and the weather was amazing. Totally recommend, even if you don’t want to snorkel.

We booked this tour because we were a family group of various ages and ability, including a young toddler. The fact that we had options to either see the ocean life by glass bottom boat or snorkeling suited each of us. The crew were fantastic. They looked after us all and explained everything clearly. They had good knowledge of the coral reef and it's inhabitants. We saw several turtles and reef sharks from the glass bottomed boat. Those that chose to snorkel were less fortunate but still saw enough variety of fish to make it a worthwhile adventure. The low tide that afternoon made conditions slightly murkier than the usually crystal clear waters. You just have to accept nature as it presents itself to you. We all came away having had a lovely afternoon in and on the sea at the Low Isles.

Mike, Miles and Euan took us out to the low isles on the AM trip. It was amazing! We got to see sharks, turtles and a load of other fish. The guys were amazing, very knowledgeable and clearly love what they do. There was only 2 groups on the boat so Euan took us out on a private snorkel while the others went on the glass bottom boat and he was fantastic. Miles then pointed out a bait ball to find some sharks and we saw them straight away. Overall it was a great experience and would definitely recommend!

Highly recommended. All Crew were very friendly on initial greeting.. The entire team were professional and engaging. Mike’s knowledge had the youth and adults engaged which made for an interesting experience. The snorkeling experience was awesome..

Highly recommend snorkelling the Low Isles! It was a really easy experience and honestly just a lot of fun. The guides were great and I even got to see a turtle!

This trip should have been canceled. We visited their office the day before due to the weather forecast and were advised it was still going to be fine to head out. When they hand out seasickness tablets to everyone it's not a good sign. Heavy rain the whole time, very poor visibility during the snorkelling, very disappointing for our two kids who were very excited about the trip. We complained direct to the administration and were offered a 15% discount on another $800 odd trip out another day. Cannot recommend this company.

My daughter and I had an amazing morning at the Low Isles. Roman, Ewan and Matthias were very competent and friendly. I've snorkelled all over world and the sea life was very special on this trip. So many turtles, reef sharks and fish. We even had the added entertainment of a sea rescue mannequin floating by as we headed back to Port Douglas !! If you have a short period of time and want to experience some of the reef then this is the trip for you.
