About this tour
Head out to Low Isles from Port Douglas on a compact half-day snorkel trip designed to skip the rough seas. The sheltered lagoon lets you explore coral and fish directly off the beach in a small group of 14 or fewer. Glass-bottom boat option available for those who'd rather stay dry. All gear supplied, plus lycra or wetsuit depending on season. Three and a half hours total.
Highlights
- Snorkel straight off the beach in calm lagoon waters
- Small group maximum keeps the island feeling uncrowded
- Glass-bottom boat alternative for non-swimmers
- All snorkelling equipment and wetsuits included
- Walk around Low Isles or relax between dips
- Sheltered conditions ideal for families and nervous swimmers
What to expect
You'll meet at the Reef Sprinter shop in the marina 30 minutes before departure—no transport provided, but free parking is available. The boat ride to Low Isles is shorter and gentler than typical reef tours. Once there, wade straight into the lagoon and snorkel at your own pace, or explore the island on foot. The glass-bottom boat lets you watch marine life without getting wet if that suits you better. Bring your own towel and snacks; there's no food service on site.
Good to know
Check in 30 minutes early. No food or towels provided—pack your own. Arrive with free parking available near the marina shop. Not suitable if pregnant, recovering from spinal injury, or managing cardiovascular conditions. Minimum age three years; each passenger needs their own seat.
