Calypso Low Isles Half Day Tours

Join us for a snorkelling experience at a secluded island at the best times of day; early morning and afternoon. Arriving at Low Isles after a 30 minute journey, guests will explore the coral reef and its inhabitants without the crowds. Guests get 2.5 hours to snorkel and explore this picturesque coral cay, a similar amount of time as some full day tours have at the island. Snorkel in the calm lagoon or view the reef from our glass bottom boat, Calypso’s crew will provide tours for guests to learn and appreciate the incredible Great Barrier Reef. This tour is perfect for visitors who have limited time and want to explore the picturesque Low Isles.
