The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are a proper dry spell for waves. I’ve looked at the only spot that popped up, and honestly, it’s a tough one to get excited about. We’re staring down a long, flat run with hardly any energy in the water.
Crash Boat is the only game in town, and it’s an inconsistent spot that needs a specific swell. We’ve got a massive gap starting now. From Sunday the 9th all the way through to Monday the 18th of August, the surf is basically non-existent. The swell heights are stuck at 0.3 ft to 1 ft, with combined swell energy barely hitting double digits (mostly between 1 and 10). That’s as weak as it gets. The water is warm at 85°, which is a touch above normal for this time of year, but you won’t need a wetsuit to sit there and stare at a flat ocean.
The winds are mostly offshore or cross-off from the ENE, which would be perfect if there were any waves. There are a few windows where it’s glassy, like Tuesday morning the 18th, but the swell is a tiny 1 ft from the north with a period of 5 seconds. That’s just not enough to push anything rideable. The whole period is a write-off for paddling – honestly, with the wind and the tiny, weak swell, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than trying to catch a wave on a surfboard.
Hang in there. When the region goes this quiet, it usually doesn’t last forever. Forecasts can change, but for now, save your energy.

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.
