Please Note:
Wavedancer's annual maintenance commences on Monday 23rd November 2009 and returning to operation on Monday 14th December 2009.
During that time, on the following dates they will be running Quicksilver V which is a wavepiercing catamaran to Low Isles:
Wednesday 25th November
Saturday 28th November
Monday 30th November
Wednesday 2nd December
Saturday 5th December
Monday 7th December
Wednesday 9th Decenber

Quicksilver V is not a sailing boat, however, due to the boat being faster there is the added bonus of having an extra 90 minutes approximately at the island.
For all other dates during the maintenance period they will not have a vessel operating to Low Isles.

The Biologists also offer a guided tour through a "Heritage Walk" which outlines human use of the island, past and present.
Snorkelling - A Guided Expedition ...Snorkelling is a ton of fun and a brilliant way to view this watery wonderland. All equipment is provided and our friendly snorkelling supervisor is on hand to give you a few tips, or take the opportunity to join organised snorkel expeditions and view the creatures of the reef under the guidance of a Marine Biologist.
Meeting the Locals ...Coral viewing is so easy with a glass bottom boat tour.
