I’ve always thought this as a kid and I’ve been told it doesn’t work that way but never got an actual explanation

Anywhere that would be safe undewater where a tsunami is, you’d have to be flown out to reach, and the tsunami would hit land before you hit the water, not to mention that it would still be safer in the air. Tsunamis usually have about three to five minutes of warning between when it is first noticed and when it reaches the beach. Anywhere between where the tsunami is noticed and the beach is will be devastated by the tsunami, You can’t take a boat out because the waves are too high. You can’t swim out because lungs compress much better than water does, not to mention that you’ll get knocked around like a ragdoll held by a playful dog. Anywhere that would be safe would have to be deep down, reached by some form or aerial transport, but planes take ages to get up and need a runway, while helicopters still take *three to five minutes* by experienced pilots
