You really don't drop down that far and the hazard of hyper-extension as a result of the force of hitting the water from twenty or thirty feet is quite real.

Or going off a ship with large freeboard, or a barge, or out of a helicopter, there are many possibilities that are not shore diving.My first question is how deep is the water? Then I still wouldn't GS higher than about 10 feet. Also, if you are doing a GS from these heights you are obviously shore diving. Be sure you have an exit point!
