The designation of "Crash Boat" as a beach pertains to a fishing vessel that collided with and submerged at the pier in its southern part. To this day, remnants of the vessel can be found lodged in the shallower waters of the beach.
Notably, the beach is distinguishable by an imposing pier, which served as a rescue hub for American Air Force personnel who had to abandon their planes during World War II. Currently, the pier remains an ideal locale for diving enthusiasts, although it is no longer involved in recovery operations.
Visitor reviews highlight that the beach is beautiful and always busy, with plenty of food options and activities such as boat rentals and kayaking. However, visitors complain about the beach being too crowded on weekends and some broken picnic tables, as well as the unacceptable fact that the toilets are often locked and dirty.
Visitors to Crash Boat Beach often stay in the nearby town of Aguadilla, which offers a variety of accommodations, from budget-friendly hotels to more luxurious resorts. Some visitors also choose to stay in the coastal town of Rincón, known for its surfing beaches, and make day trips to Crash Boat Beach to enjoy its unique diving spots.
