Not sure what the question is...but if I'm understanding you right, then yes, there are monsters that can knock you into the water. Water is very dangerous, so most players tend to be pretty scared of it.
If you GM will let you, but a touch of the sea potion. It is a level 1 spell, so it should cost only 50gp. That will give you a swim speed for 1 minute, which is usually enough to last for a single fight. Get a few if the GM is making you go on boats a lot. You can also get a rope, and tie yourself to the ship. That can keep you from drowning, or at least make it easy for your party members to pull you back up. Finally, make sure you always have a Piercing weapon, because bludgeoning and slashing weapons don't work well underwater. A dagger is fine, but it might be worth it having something heftier (such as a trident or a long spear).
Basically, you're role playing an adventurer, and adventurer's should always try to have tools for dealing with a variety of situations, including fighting in water.

Oh, you're a wizard? For some reason, I was assuming you were a fighter or something like that. You're going to get ton's of options for dealing with water, especially once you get level 2 spells. Alter self and Levitate come to mind. Touch of the Sea is also a little better for you because you'll also have the option of casting it.

Veilgn - In/on water, you generally have 3 problems
1) Breathing
2) Moving
3) Combat
I Know you're a wizard but I don't know your level.
To deal with item #1:

To deal with #2:

Alternatively, avoid going in the water with:

To deal with #3:
Avoid use of fire spells, and avoid area-of-effect spells, as if you're over water and they are under, they get cover and evasion (I think).

If you see a Giant Octopus, run away. They have a 20 foot reach with Grab so on a successful attack, they get a CMB check to pull you overboard (remember, that on a successful grapple check, the target is moved to a square adjacent to the grappler which will generally be in the water).
