I wasn't there for another fight because I realized you were the only person who had crossed the ocean in about 45 minutes, and that the next 45 weren't looking any better.

I didn't actually need to leave the area if I recall correctly. Squid doesn't show up on where when it is underwater, and the jellyfish can camo. Odds were I was still sitting in the ocean. Otherwise, there are about three or four areas I can get to from the Aryth, and four more from the Open Sea.

As for the swimto, murder, flee tactic, it usually works best for the squid. The opening round lands substantially more hits, only time it really backfired was when Narissa managed to land a blind on me, and I failed to cancel is quickly enough.
