I had some trouble at Stage 4, when you have to 'lead' Grash. I expected it was linked to some spell (as they did in most of the other quests).
Turns out you just have to walk on the very edge of the room in order to dodge the waves, then he starts moving and you can just continue dodging the wave until you're at the Naga and she despawns.

It might be obvious, but if you are stuck and can't proceed to Stage 4 and Grash is standing in the center of the room stunned, heal him to full and he will proceed to break through to the elevator.
Just in case anyone is having trouble with this quest for this reason, make sure you're not accidentally pulling Kra'liss while you're in the hallway during phase two. If you've done this and are constantly getting killed due to an inability to dodge his charge (Wreck), hearth out and then re-enter the scenario by finding Thrall and Krasus' landing.

What to do
Description
Wavespeaker Adelee tracked Sharas'dal to the Throne of Tides within the Abyssal Maw, then disappeared. {name}, if we go after her, we are almost certainly walking into a trap. But the elements are with us, my friend. The naga will not expect a shaman of your caliber! Swim to the Throne of Tides to the Northwest, within the Abyssal Depths. I will join you once you are inside. Let's find our missing shaman and get that artifact!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Wavespeaker's Trail
The shaman we seek is Wavespeaker Adelee. Her research brought her down to these ancient ruins, where she reported naga armies amassing prior to the Legion invasion. The last I had heard, she had located Sharas'dal, the Scepter of Tides - and then she went silent.
After this quest
Taken from a quest that requires this one.
- A Ring Reforged
Speak with Nobundo, and take your place around the circle, <name>. The Earthen Ring will rise again, with you as its leader! Within these stones stands the legendary Heart of Azeroth, which we can use as a base of operations. Perhaps the power of your artifact can unseal the hidden chambers...
