The Lowdown
Alright, listen up, crew. Rusty here, and I gotta be straight with you—the outlook for Crash Boat is a total bummer. We're looking at a 16-day stretch where the surf is pretty much on life support. There's a big dry spell at the start with nothing on offer, and it stays bleak for days.
The entire forecast is just these tiny, weak south pulses. The wave energy numbers are all in the single digits, from 1 right up to a whopping 13, which is nothing. The wind is the only thing cooperating, with plenty of clean, glassy mornings, but without any swell, it's like having a perfect car with no engine.
Crash Boat is a sheltered spot that only really works when the swell comes from the west. This persistent south swell is just too weak to get the job done. You'd be out there on a board that's too big for you, just waiting for a ride.
The absolute best you'll see is on the afternoon of Wednesday, August 5th, with a 0.3m south swell and a period of 5 seconds. The energy might hit 10, but that's still poor. The wind will be gentle offshore, so it'll be clean, but it's basically a lake. With these tiny waves and a bit of breeze, this spot is looking way more fun for a kite surfer than a surfer with a paddle.
There's no standout here. Nothing. The forecast is just too small and too inconsistent. It's one of those times where the area just goes quiet, and we have to be patient for a change. Keep your eyes on the charts.
Rusty out.

Information about the Crash Boat Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Crash Boat provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Crash Boat can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Crash Boat surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Crash Boat) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Crash Boat may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Crash Boat is 4 km (2 miles) from the city of Aguadilla. If you plan a holiday in Puerto Rico, look for hotels and other accommodation in Aguadilla. Aguadilla has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
