did you book a tour or walk around byself?

[@AussieVirals]

By ourselves. The ferry goes to the island frequently, not difficult to handle the tour by yourself, mate.

[@jacobspro9902]

how long does it take from stony point to French Island by ferry mate?

[@AussieVirals]

Yes, exactly! We tour the island with friends. Inside the island there is a shop near the port where you can hire a car. Better to call them the day before if you want to do so.
