Important Information

The full-day Sailaway Low Isles tour is currently suitable for all ages, with infants aged 0–3 accepted free of charge and child rates applying from 4–12 years.

Low Isles is a coral cay and fringing reef experience, not an Outer Great Barrier Reef tour. This distinction is useful when choosing between Sailaway’s Low Isles and Outer Reef experiences.

Snorkelling instruction and in-water assistance are provided. Guests should follow crew instructions and discuss any swimming, mobility or medical concerns with the operator before participating.

Marine life is wild. Green turtles are frequently observed at Low Isles, but turtle or other wildlife sightings cannot be guaranteed.

The itinerary, snorkelling conditions and sailing experience can change according to weather, tides and marine conditions.

The current 2026–27 ticket price includes the Great Barrier Reef Environmental Management Charge.

Sailaway VI is a Lagoon 560 sailing catamaran, and the Low Isles experience deliberately combines sailing with reef and island exploration rather than treating the vessel simply as transport
