    A FAST, FUN EXCITING BOAT RIDE JUST 15 MIN TO THE LOW ISLES REEF! Then one and a half hours of spectacular snorkelling in shallow protected water, followed by the 15 minute boat ride back. All up, this is a 2 and a quarter hour reef trip that will give you half a day to do something else and you won't get sea sick!

    Fabulous snorkelling

    What a fabulous morning snorkelling with turtles, sharks and a multitude of fish 🐟 . Highly recommend this trip. Well organised, just the right amount of time and friendly, knowledgeable crew. A holiday highlight.

    Great trip

    Great trip out to the Low Isles, the small number of people on the boat and the resulting personal touch was fantastic. Our kids loved the short rib ride out to the snorkel site and the crew were accommodating towards them. Great couple of hours.

    Something for everyone

    Thank you to the crew for making it an enjoyable day for us all - 7 years to 47 years old. No turtles today but lots of fish! 3 kids who have never snorkelled before gave it the big thumbs up.

    Great alternative

    We chose Reef Sprinter as an alternative tour hoping to accommodate our visiting family from the UK who suffer with seasickness. Great choice! Fantastic staff. Fun ride in the speed boat and an overall lovely snorkeling experience. Thank you!

    Not 100% sure. We had a hire car. Easiest way would be to contact them directly. Sorry I couldn’t help any further!
