All very true - I did a shore dive from the Ferrybridge end of the causeway once, never been so knackered in my life
Definitely concentrate on the Chesil Cove end, a lot more to see there anyway.
The cove is generally sheltered in anything except a sw-w wind, but if the wind is blowing into the cove at anything more than force 3 and you're not used to surf entries/exits then stay out of the water. We spent an interesting day down there a couple of years ago, basically dragging people out of the surfline because they hadn't realised how difficult it can be.
