We had a super trip to the Low Isles. We had great staff both on the glass bottomed boat and on the Island. Perfect for us as I wanted to snorkel, but my husband did not. We saw turtles, small sharks, clam and lots of fish. We had lots of fun and there was interesting chat about the reef and the isles.
Brilliant

What a great way to spend the afternoon. Saw turtles, squid, giant clams, coral and heaps of fish. Roman, Allison and Freya were fantastic and knowledgeable hosts who clearly love their work.
Too expensive for an ordinary experience

The coral around the Low Isles has been badly destroyed by a cyclone 18 months ago so looks beige and grey. Fish life is minimal but still pretty just not worth the 4 hour investment. The Calypso vessel transporting guests to the reef is very basic and, as in our case with high winds and waves, the top deck was closed and there weren’t enough proper seats on the main deck to comfortably seat all the passengers and water from crashing waves smashed through the plastic drop down sides into the seating area. Imo the ticket price is way too high for the level of service which is no fault of the 3 person crew who did their very best under the circumstances to make the excursion as fun as possible.
Amazing snorkeling so close to Port Douglas

Truly wonderful experience. Loved the glass bottom boat tour with knowledgeable interpretation and plenty of free time to snorkel off the beach. Crew were outstanding. Great diversity of fish and inner reef coral , and turtles, and baby reef sharks. Snacks provided at end was a great way to finish. Early start meant not too hot
Brilliant tour and great staff

Absolutely brilliant. Roman, Allison and Freya were so helpful and informative. Saw turtles, squid, giant clams and heaps of colourful fish. Tempted to take off one star because we didn't see a shark but couldn't bring myself to do it.🤣 Would absolutely recommend this tour and the staff.
Awesome day
