So, I thought that might have been the point you were making. It's impossible for a rock to float on the water, though, so that doesn't really hold much weight. I'd imagine that the reason you don't see the islands beneath the waves is that many of them would have to go through Hyrule, which the goddesses obviously left the very bottom part of it unflooded, else it would be impossible to access. So, I think that just when you're down there does the land that the islands are on disappear.
