Zombies, unlike people, don't need air to survive. I don't think their ability to swim has any bearing on anything.
A simple fence keeps them out, why isolate yourself from sources of salvaged food/materials by going to an island? The biggest threats that the group has faced through the first 3 seasons are human, not zombie.
