I would not recommend kayaking to the island unless you are experienced, as the channel has a high amount of traffic. Many fishing vessels pass through at a high rate of speed and visibility can be poor.

Yes. You must cross open water. I am not sure of your skill level. I recommend using a gps program online to ensure you are up for the distance.

Time is 25 minutes by tour boat. Also large ships pass through this water .

You can, but you must be highly experienced. Do not go on a windy day and keep an eye out for the tides as well. It can be extremely dangerous going across the channel

I would not recommend it

If you know how to negotiate boat wakes and waves in general you should be fine. I would only do it on a non windy day. It's a good distance across Open Water

If you are an experienced kayaker, then yes, but because of the heavy boat traffic, not recommended

Marc Strickland | Aug 27, 2018

You physically can, but do not recommend. High volume of large vessel traffic and can be wavy/choppy with strong currents.

Yes
