Sorry I'm late to the party. My first thought was the island compacted and sunk into the bay. It is the best possible anwer to the question. I suppose earthquake activity may have lowered the bay in at area as well. To suggest it is a sea level rise is foolish. When you add water to one side of the glass what happens? You just have more water on one side? lol
That makes no sense. If you put the glass upright again, it spills over the top (just like what happened to the island). If you have a glass 3/4 full of water and add five or six icecubes, eventually it will also spill over the top. If you only add one or two, it will equalize but there will still be more water than you started with.
