Watersports

St. Croix offers a plethora of fun watersports for all ages and skill levels.  Surrounded by the Caribbean Sea and stunning reefs, St. Croix is a paradise for scuba divers, snorkelers, sailors, and paddlesports enthusiasts.  Kayak or stand up paddleboard (SUP) the calm waters of Salt River, or try some more extreme watersports like jet skiing, flyboarding or parasailing.  Book a multi-day sailing charter, a sunset cruise, or take a day trip to Buck Island and snorkel the underwater trail.  St. Croix is also a haven for sport fishing, both deep sea and near shore. Whatever you like to do in or around the water, or if you're looking to try something new, St. Croix's watersports operators have something for everyone.
