I stayed strictly SW from your lifepod and had no issue getting there. The trench was pretty obvious and I didn't see nor hear aggressive fauna outside sandsharks and stalkers on the way there. There are most importantly gelpods to make aerogel there, as well as rubies, lithium and blood sacs. It later opens up to the real forest but even near that entrance I saw nothing on the Seamoth sonar.

It should also be noted that your starting lifepod isn't strictly one location every game. I suspect it ends up randomly within the Safe Shallows, so you may have to steer a little off to get there.
