St. Croix Water Activities

You could spend hours gazing at the Caribbean's gently lapping layers of blue, turquoise, and aquamarine, and you probably will. However, we encourage you to venture off the shore and experience St. Croix's sea from a different angle -- on it, or in it! You'll never gaze at the layers of blue in the same way again.

Go diving or snorkeling. Behold the secrets of the sea for which St. Croix was voted a top Caribbean diving destination. Take a sailing tour to Buck Island; you'll understand why the island and its reef have been made a National Park. You may also want to take a more intimate sailing charter to a fantastic remote reef - away from crowds. If you try sailing on your own, or kayaking, parasailing, or windsurfing, you'll learn to work with the sea, its waves and whims. If you spend your time fishing, you'll get to know the sea as a source of exotic abundance. Kayak the peaceful waters and learn about St. Croix's ecology.

If escaping the cold temperatures to play in our warm waters is your idea of a good time, then St. Croix is the place for you!   Just check out some of the available water activities below.
