Top Palm Cove Sailing Trips

Great day in the low isles cruise , we saw green turtle , reef sharks & colourful fish, staff were so friendly though & great service . They all went out of their way to be sure we were safe , it was my friend’s first time snorkelling and they saved her when she panicked . Reassuring to know they were there & we were very happy . Highly recommend, highlight was the trip home…Hugh waves but singing ( a staff member brought out his guitar ) & drinking completely sparkling was an experience we won’t forget !

Even if the weather was not with us entirely, the day was a pure bliss. Went on board of the Wavedancer catamaran on route for the Low Isles day trip. The crew was amazing and very knowledgeable. The food on board was amazing and we had more than enough for a second serve. All equipment for a day snorkeling, with an amazing Marine biologist on board (Glen). He is taking you on a journey to discover and understand the area. So much to learn. The snorkeling was a bit blurry by the recent weather, but it is nature and we cannot do anything about it. The coral was still a pure bliss and all the fishes were very colourful. No turtle this time but again nature is always giving you what she can. Glen also took us on a tour of the island, showing us the lemon shark attacking the fishes along the beach, telling us about the beautiful story of the island and how it works with its 2 ile keepers. He also showed us the nest of the island bird and explained to us a bit about History and the discovery of the Great Barrier Reef. What an amazing story teller, and he has so many things to tell you. We finished with a complementary glass of bubble and afternoon tea on our way back.Will definitely come back when the weather is nicer and give us more visibility.But I 100 recommend this cruise ! From the pick up at the hotel, to the boarding pass, the boarding, the cruise and the return, it was an amazing day! Thank you guys!

The excursion I wanted to take was sold out so plan B ….which we discovered should have been plan A all along. We really enjoyed this excursion. The crew was amazing and the views were too!! We also had entertainment on the way back in! One of the guys played his guitar and sang to us on the way back. If we ever get back there we will do this again! But being a 22 hour flight I’m not sure when we will do it again.

It was a wonderful relaxing day. Snorkelling was great got to see reef sharks turtles and a variety of fishes Plenty of food and the staff were very friendly and informative.

Enjoyed this experience with family and we all had a great day. Unfortunately we arrived at low tide so visibility was poorer than expected, but they’re the breaks! Still fun and saw turtles and plenty of colourful fish

The crew and everyone involved were great. I recommend doing the snorkeling with the marine biologist

Sea turtles, entertainment onboard, great staff, great food. Lovely experience all the way round. The glass bottom boat was excellent. Many activities to choose from.

Fabulous day out on the Great Barrier Reef with an entertaining, knowledgeable, and extremely competent crew. Go for it.

Professional tour staff, broad range of optional activities across the day, well organised, great communication, educational, delicious and generous lunch too!

Excellent experience! Swimming freely with the turtles, fish and even small sharks was awesome! Got picked up from our apartment at Palm Cove and dropped off. Morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea was great! Plenty of beverages to stay hydrated (and even Aloe Vera for any burnt victims like myself) I liked how you had a choice to do anything you wanted and no restricted, I snorkelled for the entire time and was perfect! Great staff, very friendly and helpful if you needed anything they were there for you! Highly recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy the day and they take care of everything and value for money for sure!

Just wonderful service and we saw so much around the island.The group six was quite big but we knew that given the boat size.Lunch was magnificent and that complimentary glass of bubbles at the end was a nice touch.We saw turtles, reef sharks and so many other awesome sea life.Well done guys.

Fantastic experience, very well organised and enjoyable. Would recommend this to families, I did this tour 28 years ago with my children and this time with my grandkids

This was best tour by far. Well organised with friendly crew. Low Isles was amazing to swim and snorkelling. Great lunch and all inclusive

We found the bus trip informative as we were given a heads up on what to expect and we’re able to plan our day. The sky was clear with moderate winds so the glass bottom boat tour was fascinating. Lunch on board was superb. We spent the afternoon snorkeling off the Atol. The coral was beautiful, so colorful. We saw so many different fish. On the shuttle we viewed several turtles as well. It was a lovely ride home sipping sparkling on the foredeck listening to a crew member who entertained us with songs as he played his guitar. Truly a memorable day. Thank you Wave Dancer crew you are the best.

Snorkelling lunch sailing and singing was brilliant - wonderful day out to the low isles on Windancer

What an unforgettable experience! Pickup from Palm Cove direct to the boat along the coastline, a beautiful 1 hour sail to the island. Snorkelling instructions and information provided was fantastic. Very friendly staff and service. Would recommend taking the glass bottom boat out and eating lunch before the snorkelling experience / walk around the island so that you don’t waste time on the shuttle to and from the island. Grey (crew member) sang us back to Port with a complimentary glass of bubbles. Was highly enjoyable and would definitely recommend!
