Need a level of fitness to sea kayak to the island

General Comments
I booked a holiday last year with the Adventure Company of Australia based in Cairns.

On day one we packed our sea kayaks and padelled to the Barnard islands where we set up camp for three days. The island is uninhabited thus no running water. We spen the days kayaking, snorkelling and lazing on the beaches of the surrounding islands. Dinner in the evening was cooked on the beach and travelling tales were exchanged. I saw turtles, fish, dolphins, sharks, birds - totally amazing experience.
