Yes, you will still be allowed in the water at Crab Island when the captain says the depth, current, and boat position are safe. Crab Island is a submerged sandbar in Choctawhatchee Bay, so the water level changes with the tide and wind. A spot that is waist deep at low tide may be chest deep or deeper at high tide, and the crew keeps younger kids or weaker swimmers closer to the boat when the water is higher.
