Not only the depth, the currents are too strong

Very deep, very strong currents, strong winds, 3.3 km single span, strong earthquake risk, active volcano (erupts multiple times per year) at less than 100 km.
All doable technically, but very costly with uncertain economic benefit.

Just build a bridge, and then build the bridge on it so it doesn't have to be in the water.
