I am thinking of moving to St. Croix full time. Is it true that the water is grey and unswimmable June through December? How do you like living there?

LMAO:@) now that's funny.
Where did you hear that?

Someone is obviously pulling your leg as our waters are beautiful, year round.

If you're a diver, after a heavy rainfall or some current changes, visibility may be reduced to 60-100 feet... but never gray or un-swim-able! (is that a word)?

I've been diving in STX in different years in June, July and November. I don't think I've ever seen visibility less than 60 ft.

Thank you all for the responses. That's great news.
Is there a way to find buddies to snorkel with? ...like a meetup group for snorkeling?

grey water? wow. never. after a heavy rain it might be a bit brown near the coast for less than a day due to the run off, especially in gallows bay but you can always see forever when diving or snorkeling.
unswimable-maybe due to being acclimated and the water being too cold for some. it gets too cold for me

There are a group of swimmers who normally swim with snorkel, mask, and fins on M-W-F at 730 am at Cane Bay; they swim about a mile and stop for turtles or anything else interesting that they see.
