$307 adult

Enjoy a day to remember exploring the reef with an island cruise to Low Isles aboard a luxury catamaran.

Description

Tour Details

Experience the journey as much as the destination as you cruise towards the white sandy beaches and magnificent coral gardens of Low Isles.

A protected coral cay, Low Isles is a renowned playground for turtles, fish and other friendly sea creatures and boasts a picture perfect tropical beach complete with palm trees and a lighthouse as your backdrop for the day.

The coral extends right up to the beach so you don’t need to go far to have a close encounter with a playful turtle or enjoy the colourful parade of fish on display.

Relax on the island, enjoy a heritage walk to learn more about the fascinating history of Low Isles which was first explored by scientists in 1928, join the guided snorkel tour with a marine naturalist to find out how the reef works, take a trip on the glass bottom boat or laze on deck moored in the sheltered blue lagoon.

You get to spend four-and-a-half hours at the breathtaking coral cay including a mouthwatering alfresco gourmet buffet lunch with prawns.

The small number of guests, excellent service and personal attention from the helpful friendly crew make for a delightful reef experience, topped off with an exhilarating sail back to Port.
