Hi ! August is in nice time to visit. May to Sept is the busy tourist season. No need to book Months in advance. I advise you check out the weather on arrival and book your tour a few days in advance. The tour company is Great Adventures and if you book another tour they give 10% discount. If you are an outdoors type, they run Canyoning Tours at 2 great locations as well as Reef trips. I have not been on the Canyoning tours but often swim / hike in the gorges around these locations. Safe travels and I hope you enjoy kayaking at Fitzroy Is.

Possibly at Cairns airport. This is just a guess though. The airport is not very far from the port area where the ferries to Fitzroy island leave. You could possibly look for other long term parking options through Google. Good luck
When you travel from Cairns to Fitzroy Island, do the sea get too rough and toss the ferry, making you fall over and break your bones?
A:
There are a number of ferries, some are fast and others slower. The fast ferry takes about 30 minutes to Fitzroy Island. The water is not rough and you will not fall and hurt yourself. …
There are a number of ferries, some are fast and others slower. The fast ferry takes about 30 minutes to Fitzroy Island. The water is not rough and you will not fall and hurt yourself. This is a very safe way to travel. Australia has very strict regulations about boating. Enjoy your trip.
