Considering salt water is a great conductor of electricity, the lightning can strike near you and you might still get electrocuted due to the salt water conduction if any part of you is in the water.
Also be aware you can be under sunny skies and a T-storm miles away can zap you. When I was in Florida we had a storm over our navy base inland (NAS Whiting) that sent a bolt out that hit a young boy at the beach near Pensacola even though he was under sunny skies at the beach.
