Join us for a snorkelling adventure on a remote island during the ideal times of day…early morning and late afternoon. After a 30-minute journey, tourists will arrive at Low Isles to explore the coral reef and its creatures without the masses.

Calypso Low isle provides 2.5 hours to snorkel and explore this beautiful coral cay. Calypso’s crew will arrange excursions for guests to learn about and appreciate the amazing Great Barrier Reef, whether snorkelling in the quiet lagoon or viewing the reef from our glass bottom boat.

As the reef hugs the island, access to it is simple, either from the back of the vessel or from the shore. Guests can access the island** and enjoy the sandy paths flowing through the vegetation on our two daily departures*. View the historical Lighthouse, the Lighthouse Keeper’s residence, and the Meteorological Station, which collects local weather data.

Many marine birds breed and nest in the foliage and on the ground, making for amazing bird life. This tour is ideal for those on a tight schedule who wish to explore the lovely Low Isles on the Great Barrier Reef.
