Contextual Overview
15Then Jesus, realizing that they were about to come and make Him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by Himself. 16When evening came, His disciples went down to the sea, 17got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was already dark, and Jesus had not yet gone out to them. 18A strong wind was blowing and the sea grew agitated. 19When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the sea-and they were terrified. 20But Jesus spoke up: "It is I; do not be afraid."21Then they were willing to take Him into the boat, and at once the boat reached the shore where they were heading.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See this miracle of walking on the sea explained in the notes at Matthew 14:22-33. Compare Mark 6:45-52.
John 6:21
Immediately - Quickly. Before a long time. How far they were from the land we know not, but there is no evidence that there was a miracle in the case. The word translated âimmediatelyâ does not of necessity imply that there was no interval of time, but that there was not a long interval. Thus, in Matthew 13:5, in the parable of the sower, âand immediately (the same word in Greek) they sprung up,â etc., Mark 4:17; Matthew 24:29; 3 John 1:14.
