In one of the Day of the Dead films (a newer one) the swam across a channel of water. It was more of a walk under water than swim if I remember right.

So you head to an island, hope the sharks and other fish get them and then keep watch for zombie sea animals.

Well zombies are weak against fire so i'm guessing they wouldn't mind the water at all. And as mentioned already they could just "walk" underwater I guess.

From what I remember of the Zombie Survival Guide, no they cannot. But they can walk along the lake/sea/ocean floor for as long as it takes to come eat your brains.

^This. Max Brooks (either in The Zombie Survival Guide or World War Z, can't remember), refers to an incident of infected corpses being thrown off a ship, then reanimating at the bottom of the ocean and simply walking aimlessly until they eventually reached a shore somewhere. I image they'd be so bloated at that point that they'd all look like Boomers. :D

Swimming is for mortals. Walking underwater is the way to go.

Having been in a Zombie outbreak my self I can tell you 100% that no they can not. They can however walk. Very slowly.

They don't seem to have the necessary coordination to do so.

I believe they do something like this:

1

So it is conceivable that they will reach all land masses eventually. That's why I'll just stay on a boat far away from any land.

The key is to have them fall down some deep underwater gorge that is like thousands of miles deep. That oughta slow em down

They don't swim, but they sink to the bottom and walk. It may be slower but they can still reach you on a remote island.

Wouldn't walking underwater kill them because it would eventually damage their brain... I'm not sure. They're already dead so they don't need to breathe but do they?

Well, I don't know if it's swimming but they sure know their way underwater and how to move in it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSPG9QQg4C0.
