Sail to the Low Isles — a jewel-like coral cay ringed by turquoise lagoons just 15 km offshore — aboard a luxury sailing catamaran. Snorkel vibrant reef gardens, walk the white-sand beach, and visit the 1878 heritage lighthouse. Intimate, gorgeous, and effortlessly elegant.
What to expect
Cast off from Port Douglas Marina aboard an elegant sailing catamaran, with tropical breakfast served as you glide to the Low Isles. Snorkel the fringing reef alongside a marine biologist guide — hawksbill turtles are resident here — then explore the tiny coral cay on foot, visiting the historic lighthouse and the Queensland Parks ranger station. A gourmet tropical lunch is served on the beach before sailing home under afternoon light.
