St. Thomas shore excursion

[Debitubs]

My first cruise - YEA! Crown Princess Oct. 19 - 26. My sister did the same cruise, same time last year and said the water was warm. I live in southern Florida and sometimes the water tends to cool down around Oct. But I have booked the BOSS underwater scooter in St. Thomas and I hope the water is still warm. I have a medical condition with one of my legs and cold makes it worse - not being able to walk is a great possibilty. I want to do this so bad but am leary. Anyone know "for sure" if the temps are warm? Or has anyone taken this specific excursion?
Thanks,
I'm a newbie and very excited!!

While I cannot comment on the specific tour, we were in St Thomas around the same time last year and water temps were very nice and warm (and I hate anything that isn't "bathwater" warm!)

Enjoy your cruise the Crown Princess is a beautiful ship!

This page will show you the current sea temperatures: http://www.wunderground.com/MAR/ . It looks like the water is 85 degrees.

Also very cool, click on wave heights at the top of the page. It's enough to make you cancel that cruise around The Horn.
