Mi favorite beach since I was a child Is just a pity that it gets too crouded on weekends and many people competing for the loudest music. If you can, go better on week days and not recommended if the day before rained too much.

One of the most beautiful beaches/places I have ever been! Spent 3 hours snorkeling 🤿! A wonderful place to snorkel and see some tropical fish, beautiful crabs, and sea life!

Crash Boat is a beautiful beach that is visited by locals and tourists alike. Crash Boat was coined and has kept this name from when the US military back in the day would race from the shore on an emergency rescue crash boat to a downed plane or some other emergency out in the ocean. The name just stuck. The beach has some showers to rinse off the sand and some tables folks can use. The parking in the lot on peak season can get scarce and may need to park in the street. There are areas in the street where you may get a parking ticket, so be mindful, ask a friendly local or look for signage. The bathrooms, however, are not very well maintained, and portions of the restroom floor may be wet and pose a slipping hazzard. This beach has snorkeling and scuba to boast, and old piers where swimmers can jump off. The shore can be enjoyed by youngsters as it is not too rough while brave swimmers can jump off one of the piers. At one point, some time ago, there was a skeleton of a ship close to the beach and made the namesake fitting. However, that is long gone and has been claimed by the sea. Sunsets are so beautiful here. Find some trees where you can tie up your hammock, slow down, and enjoy. Grab a drink on me.

The most popular beach in Aguadilla and one of the favorites on the west coast for residents of Puerto Rico. There’s a little bit of everything at Crash Boat, swimming, snorkeling, scuba diving, fishing pier, great sunsets, dancing pelicans, cheap local food, and plenty of parking. During the winter months, the west end of the beach becomes a playground for surfers. Beach volleyball is a popular pastime for young locals during sunset. Crash Boat Beach is one of the best beaches to experience the authentic local Puerto Rican experience, simple, relaxed, friendly, and always fun. The beach was probably named Crash Boat after all the colorful fishermen boats that “crash” on the shores of the beach. If you love photography, Crash boat is a great spot at sunset. The water is beautiful, with various shades from crystal clear, baby blue to cerulean blue tones. There are some spots best for swimming where the water is calmer, if you’re visiting for the first time, feel free to ask a local, swim where you see families with children, or be sure to get in the water before your children to check out the depth and conditions. The cool thing about Crash Boat is that in one location you get 3 different beaches, each appealing to a specific group, one of the reasons this beach is so popular among locals. The south end of Crash Boat typically has fewer crowds, you tend to see more people just chilling with a book and enjoying a good show from surfers during the winter months.

One of my best beach days ever. The beach is beautiful and the water was warm and clear. The food and drink trucks are wonderful additions to your beach day. Can't wait to go back.

Beautiful beach, had a great time here. I suggest getting here early to make sure you find some parking, as it tends to fill up quickly. As with any beach, there was some trash around, which speaks volumes of the people who go there, but more trashcans wouldn't hurt either. If you are in the area, it's definitely worth a visit, even if it's only to watch the sunset.

One of the BEST beaches in PR! Water is clear, snorkeling under and jumping off of the pier is a BLAST, and the services (food, drink, chairs, etc...) are great amenities. Parking is tricky if you arrive late. We saw a bunch of cars with tickets. Talked to a cop. You need to park above the wood viewing platform if parking along the side of the road.

Stunning beach! The water is so clear and great for snorkeling. Local vendors provide a quick bite or handcrafted piña coladas. There is a shower to rinse off and public restrooms. Be careful not to park on any yellow areas as you will get a ticket!

Great beach! Plenty of space with a lot of sand. The pier is nice to walk along and fish from.

During our 2 week trip to Puerto Rico we visited many beaches all around the island and Crash Boat was my favorite beach. The waters are the clearest we found, the beach sand was fine like baby powder, great spot for snorkeling and seeing fish and many kiosk options for food and drinks.

Best Beach of Puerto Rico there’s no doubt on that water is so clear you can see fishes by the bridge and people dive into the water by throwing themselves from the bridge. There’s Many food options to choose on pizza, pastelillos, pinchos, lemonades, piña coladas etc…there’s also a restaurant on site if you’re looking for bigger portions. The only thing you gotta get there early cause it gets packed and parking space could get to capacity and you’ll have to park far away.

Well kept beach. We got lucky as it was pretty empty compared to typical tourist beaches. Water was pretty clear once the sun came out. Good food spots nearby and parking lots nearby. Definitely worth the visit.

Probably one of the better beaches in Puerto Rico. Easy and free parking. Beautiful sandy beach with a pier you can jump off from. They have showers available to the public. Also there are decent restaurants nearby.

It’s a beautiful beach. It’s always busy. This is a Tourist Beach. They have plenty of food options. Bring your own ports potty. There is a Restaurant on the premises. They have rental options for boat rides etc. you can bring your own Kayak as well. I love this place and highly recommend Crash Boat Beach. Besides, the beaches in the Month Eastern part of PR tend to be safer during winter months. You can always down load the FEMA APP which tells you when it’s safe to swim and when it’s not.

This is hands down one of my favorite beaches in Puerto Rico. We love coming here and the water is so clear the waves are low and the water is calm. They have food trucks to buy food however there is no restrooms to use. The fiah come and swim at your feet and you can jump off the pier into the water. My kids loved it alot.

Beautiful beach, crystal clear water! Great for snorkeling, fun to jump off the piers. Food and drink options! Parking may be difficult. Definitely a place you want to visit!

Definitely one of the top 10 beaches in Puerto Rico, this place is a tourist heavenly spot, equipped with bars, restaurants, juice stands, coconut stands, showers, bathrooms, picture spots, parking. It’s amazing for kids, picnics, the whole family ordeal. Good place for snorkeling, swimming and suntanning. There is a bridge you can jump off and the whole place is like a dream. 10/10

Best beach in Puerto Rico. The waters are so calm and clear it's almost unreal. Great food nearby. The sand is gorgeous.

Very crowded beach with lots of garbage scattered throughout the sand. Not my favorite beach in PR but it did have very calm water that’s great for swimming.

Beautiful beach with clean and clear water. Food trucks and beach food vendors created a great experience. Loved it. Went a few times.

Beautiful. Went when there was big waves and rip current. Not a great day for swimming and snorkeling. Will try again. But, the reason for the 5 stars is the sunset. Go for the sunset and you will not regret it.

Beautiful unique beach, awesome tropical scenery at the bottom of typical island hill, not a lot of parking but after I drove two times around, I got a spot, plenty of little places to eat and find drinks, parking fee

Very nice beach. Can park on the road for free or pay $6 for a parking in front of the beach. Doing snorkel in the sink boat is quite cool.

Beautiful clear beach. To get good parking, you need to arrive early, or you will end up on the side of the street and really far from the beach.

Great beach with a pier you can jump off of. Beach has plenty of amenities. Food, water sports, jewelry, chair rentals and much more. No one hassles you to purchase anything. Beach is reasonably clean. Would suggest going to the far right where it's a bit quieter and away from the crowds to enjoy sunbathing in silence. Parking, can get full quick, so get there early. Beach is perfect for sunsets.

Great beach! Clear water. There are chairs and umbrellas to rent and has a lot of food/drink options!

Great beach, but it is a little dirty. There's various places to get food and drinks. Definitely get here early to get parking or you'll be parking along the road up the hill!

I was astonish when I arrived to the beach with all the rocks and water. I parked at Surfers Beach and then took the trail, you will see lot of beautiful scenaries. Wear good shoes you will walk between the rocks , water, mosquito repellent when you are climbing to find the stairs, lot of mosquitos there. But believe me it is hidden treasure , I love it.

Very nice beach and easy hike. No need for hiking shoes. We used regular water shoes and it was fine. Just make sure they aren’t slippery. Also you will get a free acupuncture to your legs 😉. The trail was easy to find but make sure to stay on trail especially when going back.

One of the most beautiful places in PR. It took us approximate 30 minutes each way. Make sure you bring your sneakers so you can finish the trail. Absolutely awesome!!

One of my favorite beaches here on sunny days! Please make sure to get through this place from parking your car in the Surfer's Beach. Then, hike safely for 12-15 minutes. While approaching this beach, be careful with some slippery rocks (people left temporary wet steps from beach). Until you make it here! Two fun facts about this place: (1) I learned that it was one of the spots filmed by the Lord of the Flies. (2) There is a hidden stair after entering this beach.

Beautiful hike. Wear shoes and carry a backpack for your all your stuff. The beach is tranquil, private and perfect for swimming.

Spectacular secluded beach and well worth the trek. Mid-afternoon on a Friday there were only a few other people here. Park at surfers beach and then there’s a “path” however it’s somewhat treacherous at parts. About halfway through the hike to get here it feels like there is no established route and you are trail blazing through the rain forest. There were some thorny vines to get through and I got several scratches. It’s impossible to get lost though, as long as you keep going ahead you’ll get there and you won’t regret it. Highly recommend sneakers. I wish I would have had long sleeves and pants too but it wasn’t necessary. It took 30-40 minutes to do the hike.

I hike a lot. The hike is not fun. It is rewarding but I give it four stars due to the hike. Cueva del India Nature Reserve is way better and has a easier hike.

Park at Surfer's Beach and hike in. It's approx .75 miles of fairly difficult hiking. Trails are not clearly marked but keep the ocean on left and the cliff on the right and you will eventually get there. I went 2 days in a row. First day ocean was calm and swim able. Next day waves were pounding the beach. Very romantic beach. Saw only a few people there.

It’s beautiful but you have to do a hike from Surfers beach that takes about 30-40 min to get there. You can’t access the beach directly via the survival beach stairs because the whole area is blocked off by the coast guard. The only other way would be a long walk along the beach from the north to get there.

Beautiful, breathtaking, I'm from Wisconsin so living here the past year has been constant amazement 🫢! Not so easy of a walk, but secluded and perfect, I bring my dog she loves the freedom

Picture perfect beach! The hike is amazing and the beach is beautiful! It’s a must to anyone visiting Puerto Rico. The last time I went was just after a rain storm and the surfers were there and the forest was alive from the rain! The beach is gorgeous! Saw the sunset on a cloudy day and loved it! The pics posted don’t do it justice because it was a cloudy day, but it really is very beautiful secluded spot.

Definitely a journey that is both exciting and full of wonder. As a personal comment, if you get lost on the "path" then walk beside the beach.

Definitely not for kids or even old people. If you like hiking, you would love this. The beach can’t be used, it’s too strong.

Hike was cool getting there. (You’ll have to park at Surfers Beach and make your way to Survival, it looks like a beach from the movies, certainly looks different from all the other beaches in Puerto Rico, not recommended for elderly people, its a nice place to take some photos, chill and just relax. Beautiful spot!

Beautiful beach but only for surfers not for bathing or swimming due to the rocks and reef. Could be good for snorkeling but i am not sure tk be honest. Good parking beware pot holes. Also good location if you just wanna chill with family and friends or romantic for a date spot.

This place was kind of cool but one that requires lots of walking to get to the caves pictured all over Google. I figured out why they called it Survival Beach, def need a hiking survival kit to make it through the trail and find the caves. The road to get to the beach park is full of giant potholes which can be hard to navigate with a small low to ground vehicle. The beach is very rocky and pleasant on feet. If you like a good long hike in the heat then this place is for you! It's a chill vibe to just sit and watch the sunset.

Small but beautiful beach. Good for snorkeling, swimming and families. Incredible scenery.

Great beach with secluded areas between rocky outcroppings and cliff walls. Friends and I parked for $5 at the top and walked down the steps, bought $6 piña coladas and then spent the afternoon snorkeling until the sunset. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area looking for these activities! We lots of sea turtles, colorful fish, and plant life!

Beautiful beach! Perfect for families. Bring your girl and have a picnic or explore the caves to the left side, be careful going down the steps (they can get slippery) by the looks of it the water is shallow and there were no waves when I visited. Love this beach.

Definitely My Favorite Beach in Aguadilla! Good for Snorkeling. The beach is super clean, calm, not crowded at all.

Beautiful, out of the way beach. Parking can be tough. Go early to pick a shady spot. Great place for snorkeling. Easy waves for the kids, away from the rocks.

This is an absolute gem of a beach. I highly recommend coming here as it tends to be less crowded and more locals come here. It’s great to visit to catch a sunset. The parking is limited alongside the road and also part of it is located in someone’s front yard. Great overall experience and rocky beach.

Absolutely beautiful beach to visit although there isn’t much of a beach left since the hurricanes just passed in 2022 and took much of the sand from the beach. But it is still great to visit and snorkel as well as catch some beautiful sunrises there are some dogs around the area that are super friendly but don’t like to be bothered by people.

Beautiful beach but not to swim all the time. Tide changes frequently. When the water is calm is excelent for snorkeling. Neighbors offer parking for $5 to avoid parking tickets. Believe me, I got one last year.

Parking is scarce arrive early to secure spot for both parking and beach. This beach has more rocks than other beaches and the waves were rough. There is facing cave setting so it is visually stunning however that place was packed. If the parking is full there is a guy offering 5$ parking spot at his house or lot. We arrived late to the beach and had to park at the guys house and also walk down dirt road to try to find a spot to enjoy the beach.

Amazing and breath taking beach with crystal clear waters. A bit rocky so water shoes are a must have for me. The view is spectacular. Doesn't have a good parking space. But it is definitely worth it. Not too crowded which is very good for myself. Definitely recommend it.

Great beach. Visit the left beach at low tide to fully enjoy your experience here. We were the only ones on the beach on a Friday morning. You have to drive thru a cute neighborhood and there are only 2 paved parking spots. There is off road parking for high clearance vehicles, like Jeeps. No beach glass during our September visit but found a rainbow.
