It's ok actually. Wear gloves, as you are no in the park, and there is fire coral on the ray fence next door if you get pushed into it by current, and you might have to deal with the rocks getting in or out. There are sandbags to walk on a the dive shop and at the stiarway a couple of blocks south, so check the current (look at the moorings) and maybe enter one place and ride current to the other.
How strong the current will be depends on several factors; The day (which you mentioned), where you're shore diving from, and how far out you go. On most days and from most places, the current isn't too bad and you can most certainly start your dive swimming upstream and drifting back.
Sometimes the swim upcurrent from Blue Angel can be a bit demanding, but it's usually not too bad. Or you can take it easy on yourself and put in at Villablanca and drift home.
Cool; very nice. Let me show you a trick tho. I'll disable codes for a moment to show you what I am going to use...
