Not sure how major of an issue this is, but it doesn't seem ideal.

Did the issue happen in singleplayer or on a server?
Server
Update: Seems it was only for the first logon.
2nd player joining joined on the ground.
Vanilla has a default mechanic, SpawnRadius. It's a gamerule that makes players that join spawn randomly in a (default 10 block) radius from the world spawn.
When the game spawns you in, the SpawnRadius+SpawnPoint declare the x and z of your spawn point, and the highest valid spawn block (dirt, grass, stone, sand, not underwater, and a couple other restrictions) will determine the y of your spawn point.
This is not actually a bug, it's just a quirky feature that happened because of the juxtaposition of that island and the spawnpoint. Similar things can happen in vanilla
If you don't want that, run the /spawnpoint command to push the world spawn farther out, so spawning will not happen on the skysland.
However, there is water under you, so it's not a big deal. You'd be perfectly fine to just practice your air moving skills. Turn off view bobbing and look straight down, and you're set for a 100% landing in the water chance.
