Those deep water areas can be very dangerous. Like Eben said they can sneak up on you. Its unpredictable as for months it can be fine then one night you get the rogue wave that catches you off guard in a spot you thought was high and dry. In a matter of seconds an area can be dry, and then with a swell have 10 feet of water in it. Not a place you want to go in.

I've spent a lot of time snokeling the water in those areas and other deep shorelines. Getting in and out of the water there in the day time alone with flippers can be living hell if you choose the wrong stretch. I've seen guys that chose the wrong spots and they get smashed mulitple times. 2 weeks ago I got caught in a rip that I had a hard time getting out of even with fins on. Like anywhere you have to respect the water no matter how large or small.
