That's normal in Ultima 7, and is there for plot reasons.

It is random whether you get damaged, and if you keep trying, you should eventually be able to teleport.

(I note that this is a case where the developers did something that makes the gameplay less fun for story reasons; this isn't the only time in the series they did that, as Ultima 5's shadowlords come to mind.)
What dtgreene said.
Best thing you can do is either get a ship (Lord British gives one for free if the expansion is installed) or get another, even faster form of transportation (which I'm reluctant to spoil).

Gotcha: What dtgreene said.

I have the ship deed but no ship yet, I'm stuck on the island. Only solution I see is dying and respawning in Paws.

Also it sucks at low HP because you get knocked down for 2 mins with every attempt.

Letting yourself die is indeed a quick way to get out of there.
Or use the spellbook. Cast the 'Help' spell, and you'll return to LB's castle, fully healed.

Keep in mind that you can apparently lose experience points the more you use this spell. It's a last resort-kind of thing.
I don't know if the xp loss is actually true, but the ultima codex wiki says so.
