I'd be surprised if everyone managed to land on their target as well.

hence why you bring up a good point! Never be fixated on one possible landing point but always keep alternate options open and be aware of those.
Again its called spatial awareness and keeping ahead of the game.
The Sea is a pretty big landing point anyway and might be a better option than a 400 metre stretch of beach
No I do not think all pilots are spatially aware or ahead of the game!!! Some are more than others.
