Our Low Isles snorkel tour is a high quality reef trip that leaves from Port Douglas daily. No scuba diving on this day tour just snorkelling and glass bottom boat tours to see the turtles and the coral reef systems. 

This Port Douglas snorkel and island tour is perfect for cruise ship passengers who are berthed in Port Douglas. 

Wake up in the morning and think about how relaxing this snorkel tour will be. If you are staying in Cairns or the northern beaches the road to Port Douglas is already a voyage in itself.

One of Australia’s most beautiful scenic drives along the coast either in a comfortable air–conditioned coach or your own rent a car.

As soon as you arrive at the Port Douglas Crystalbrook Super Yacht Marina you are welcomed by the smiling faces of the crew and invited on board the catamaran.

Only one hour of pure pleasure sailing and your there ovelooking Low Isles. From the moment the boat moors in the calm waters of the island’s picturesque lagoon, a host of reef activities await.

Friendly crew will take you on a leisurely, informative day where island visitor numbers are limited.

Discover the mysteries of marine life while snorkelling or if you do not want to get wet try the glass bottom boat tour.

You will be able to spot so many green turtles, and if you are very lucky even a dugong or cow of the sea which is an Aboriginal delicacy as are green sea turtles.

In some countries these dugong are called Manatees, gentle slow shy giants.

Take a guided beach walk and experience a snorkelling tour with a marine biologist which is fascinating.

They will brings things up from the bottom of the sea floor for you to see, touch and learn or just relax on the pristine white sandy beach under a thatched umbrella or explore the old lighthouse which has been greeting and protecting visitors since 1878.

No need to swim far away from the shore to encounter such amazing marine life.

Guest comment: Sitting on the beach I watched for half an hour large colorful reef fish feeding on shoals of little fishes! So amazing as I did not expect to see that much marine life when I woke up this morning what a nice surprise.

This 30 metre luxury sailing catamaran offers the excitement of big ship sailing combined with the ultimate in comfort.

Let the crew pamper you in the luxurious air–conditioned lounge with its fully licensed bar, or soak up the sun and sea air under the sails on the expansive decks.
