We snorkelled in the GBR

Lauren_B, May 2024

The entire crew were great, helpful and friendly! The sea was rough, so the first trip out there was a shock, but so worth it! The island is beautiful and feels very safe to snorkel!

Great afternoon with Calypso.

Elodie_P, Mar 2024

Awesome crew. Great snorkeling, different than the outter reef. The island is also very nice for a walk.

Disappointed no reef

Lindy_H, Mar 2024

Service was fantastic, island was beautiful but felt very disappointed that we were not notified that we had no hope in seeing any of the reef, fish etc as it was high tide & everyone knew except us.

Family reef adventure

ash_w, Feb 2024

Fantastic day out highly recommend for both young and old alike! Very well done and saw everything we wanted.

Best Snorkeling Tour Ever!

Shauna_R, Feb 2024

This tour is the best snorkeling I've ever done! It was amazing to see reef sharks, sea turtles, colorful fish and coral. The crew were great! They took us on the glass bottom boat, found interesting things and told us interesting facts while snorkeling. I also enjoyed the tour of the island. Highly recommend!

The whole experience was fantastic from start to finish would highly recommended the tour Only problem I had was my phone wasn’t waterproof so no pictures

Perfect day

mikayla_j, Nov 2023

Such a good experience! Mark, Acacia, Irene and Gracie were our crew and they were friendly and very knowledgeable! It was clear to see their passion for the ocean and its habitants. The snorkelling tour was so much fun thank you calypso!

Fabulous

Emily_P, Nov 2023

The tour offered a number of different experiences for all age and swimming skill levels. I chose to do the glass boat tour and got to see the reef and it’s animals. I still had time to snorkel too after the boat tour. My husband did the 30 min snorkel tour while I was on the boat (this mini tour is only recommended for strong or confident swimmers). We all saw several green sea turtles! We ended the day with a tour of the island and enjoyed that this was just a 1/2 day trip.

Magical Experience

Daniel_C, Oct 2023

Great crew who looked after us. Very knowledgeable and an absolute magical place. Who needs to go 2 hrs when you have everything of the reef so close. Turtles, giant clams, beautiful reef and abundance of fish

Charles_F, Aug 2023

I could not make the trip. I felt ill & and had to cancel. Seems like a great trip and the outer barrier reef I took the day before was outstanding!

Unforgettable afternoon

Rita_G, Jul 2023

The crew—Lily and Lockwood—and genial captain, Jorg, were lovely and helpful. It was a real adventure, snorkeling a bit challenging because of the low tide, but still a revelation to our children and grandchildren (we grandparents were making our second trip). It’s a fun ride on the boat over the chop, no one seasick on our trip though several of us are susceptible. Crew paid a lot of attention to safety, which was great. Highly recommend!

Had a wonderful tour...

Amazing snorkelling experience

Lior_S, Jun 2023

Wonderful friendly crew with lots of stories to share. Boat was lovely and they guided us to great spots

Awesome half day outing!!!

Nick_O, Jun 2023

Seeing the reef sharks as we first arrived and also while we snorkelled. Crew was fantastic and friendly.

Best family outing

Diane_C, May 2023

Even though the weather was not great, rain and 25 km winds, and a very rough trip out to Low Isles. The crew were very attentive to passengers needs, very informative and the best snorkelling experience we could ask for given the bad weather. Highly recommend

Unforgettable experience!

Riley_W, May 2023

Unforgettable experience! Tailored to everyone. Amazing to be able to snorkel right off the beach and still be able to see amazing things! Staff were incredible and super welcoming.

Low isles

Tracey_M, May 2023

Low isles Island is a beautiful place to spend half a day. We did the snorkelling tour with Lilly who was very informative and we saw heaps of sea life and coral. Phoebe took us on a tour of the island which was also informative and great to learn about the low isles. The captain jorg kept us safe through the rough waters. There were are few people (including myself) who got sea sick and the crew were very caring and assisted us to ensure we felt as best as possible. Great tour to go on and would definitely recommend

Not to be missed

jenny_l, May 2023

Loved it all. Had the most amazing experience snorkelling and seeing the coral from the glass bottom boat

Best experience

Margie_T, May 2023

I have never snorkelled before. The staff were very informative, calm and gave great advice. Made the experience stress free and so relaxing. This experience has now given me more insight of what it’s like to be under water and to feel like you’re in another world. I now would love to experience scuba diving which I will do in the future. This is thanks to the staff for their guidance

Wonderful trip to the Low...

Carol_M, Apr 2023

Wonderful trip to the Low Isles! Trip out was bumpy due to rough seas but once there it was beautiful. Staff was very informative and helpful. Really enjoyed our day and would highly recommend.
