The Lowdown
Alright, let me break this down for you. This is Rusty, and I’ve been staring at the charts for your area.
Honestly, it’s a tough stretch ahead. The forecast for Crash Boat (beach and reef) is a real bummer. We’re looking at a long, empty run with hardly any surf to speak of for the entire 16-day window. The swell is just flat, with wave heights barely scraping 0.7 ft at best, and the combined swell energy is pitiful – we’re talking values like 0, 1, or 2 (weak energy) for most of the period. It’s just not doing anything.
The first few days, from the 6th of August right through the 12th, are a total write-off. The swell is either nonexistent or so small it’s barely a ripple. The wind is mostly cross-off or offshore from the ENE, which would normally be nice, but with no swell, it’s just a clean lake. There’s a small uptick on the 15th and 16th of August, with a S swell at 0.7 ft and a period of 10 seconds, and the energy bumps up to about 10 or 11 (moderate energy). But even then, it’s still barely surfable for a longboard on a tiny day, and the wind is fresh to strong, making it messy.
The standout? There really isn’t one. The best we can hope for is maybe the 20th of August, Thursday morning. It’s glassy – literally no wind – and the offshore breeze is calm. But that swell is still just 0.7 ft from the S with a period of 5 seconds. It’s a super tiny, weak wave. For a spot like Crash Boat, which is inconsistent and sheltered, this is a long, flat spell. It’s not the kind of place that usually gets big, so a blank run like this is more normal for the area. The water temp is about typical for this time of year, nothing to write home about.
If you’re a kite surfer, maybe you’d find something to do with the strong breezes on the 15th, but for a paddle surfer, this is a waiting game. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a big old zero.

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.
