So if i understand you correctly, you have two images, one of the cave alone and another with a man jumping into the water in the same cave ?
If so, your approach is correct, you render the person and then put it on top of the other image.
There is no magic technique to render something perfectly, but using the path tool and a layermask is the most professional.
Especially because its non destructive and editable at all times. Something the lasso tool is not.
Photoshop has a few advanced tools like 'Refine Edge', but that isnt a guarantee for a better job.
What you want to do is not exactly a beginners task, so be prepared for a bit of a learning curve.
An alternative might be a G'MIC filter i have found to work quite well for face swapping. Here is a tutorial:
