The raft's net movement is not toward the shore compared to the surf zone.

The raft moves in a circle, and it returns to essentially the same place.

Explanation:

The region where waves break determines the surf zone. Once you pass this zone water moves in a slower circular way and stops moving forward to reach the shore, so all the elements floating in this area will follow the same movement, such as a person on a raft.
