Low Isles offers everything you can dream of in a tropical island paradise. From the moment your luxury catamaran moors in the calm waters of the island's picturesque lagoon, a host of reef activities await you.

What makes it Great?

  • Idyllic Island 
  • Turtle haven
  • Great for first time snorkellers
  • Expert Marine Biologist advice
  • Family friendly

Situated 15km north-east of Port Douglas Low Isles is a 4 acre coral cay surrounded by 150 different species of hard corals dominated by 15 species of soft corals. Living amongst the corals is a large variety of fish, molluscs, sea cucumbers and other animals.

Colourful blue, green and purple parrotfish are a common sight as well as angelfish, damselfish, anenomefish (Nemo!), trevally, rabbitfish, sweetlips, moon wrasse and fusilliers, just to name a few!

At least seven species of seagrasses grow on the inter tidal sand flats of Low Isles, providing a home and food for such animals as sea cucumbers, the attractive spider shell, as well as rays, green turtles and dugongs.

The Quicksilver crew will guide you through all the activities on Low Isles, from snorkelling and exploring the island's beach with an expert marine biologist, to seeing the coral gardens from a glass bottom boat. Wavedancer remains moored in the island's lagoon, and guests can take a regular shuttle from the beach to the boat.

Snorkellers have the opportunity to join organised snorkel expeditions and view the creatures of the reef with a Marine Guide. If you're lucky you might spot one of the Turtles that regularly visit this tranquil location.

The Wavedancer Package Includes:

  • Morning and afternoon tea
  • Informative reef presentation
  • Tropical smorgasbord lunch
  • Marine Biologist guided beach walk
  • All snorkelling equipment
  • Glass Bottom boat coral viewing tour
  • Guided snorkelling trips

The Island has permanent thatched umbrellas for your comfort.  The vessel is 30 metres and takes up to 150 passengers. 

Underwater cameras are available for purchase.
