yes people do it but not as many as you would think, water can be choppy, its calmer at the reef. Most people kayak on other side of island. You have to keep a heads up for larger boats speeding by, especially water taxis. You will also have to pay park fees if you are asked, or seen. you cant tie off on the coral so will have to take an anchor, make sure to anchor only on sandy areas. Be strong paddlers.
