Last time I was there the waves were not for an easy swim. But I went in anyway...
The problem with floating is fine and dandy till you notice that the current is sweeping you down the bay... So you still gotta swim against the current and yes... you gotta time the waves... Get in and out as fast as possible. I don't think I'd go in again when it is rough water. Only a few people went in and they were obviously more knowledgeable than I. I've only been to that beach a handful of times and they all had flippers. Might be wise to have a pair if you plan to swim there since the current can be strong and well, flippers will just help you get out even faster. But not the diving kind just the short duck fin type that body surfers normally wear.
