Crash Boat Beach and Aquadilla's Mediterranean Ocean Ambiance
Crashboat got its name from a particularly large boat which crashed into the cement pier before turning south and running aground on the beach. The beach is surrounded by some beautiful mountains that offer a glorious view of the pristine shoreline and the sunset on a clear day.
Crashboat beach is situated nearby the town of Aguadilla and has a fantastic Mediterranean ambiance. Although the beach is not really suitable for swimming, the people of Aguadilla often come here to relax in the sun or unwind in the shade of the many palm trees that line the shore.
The waters of Crashboat are generally flat or slightly choppy making them a great place to participate in water sports such as swimming, parasailing and jet skiing. The waves can get quite large from time to time but are generally very agreeable. Crashboat Beach should be on every beach connoisseur's must-see list. Besides the water, the beach has plenty of beautiful vegetation which can be explored by means of adventurous walking trails. The sands of the beach also offers an abundance of pretty, colorful, Mediterranean-style seashells.
If you would like to expand your range of water-based activities, just a short trip down the coast will bring you to a few other great places for scuba diving adventures and a couple of other water sports. This added diversity gives Crashboat even more appeal as a destination.

James is correct. You can see the piers there where he boats moored when the squadrons were there.

That is not the accurate story behind the name Crashboat. The real origin of the name is military jargon from WWII.The pier was originally built by the Army Air Force to dock the Crash Rescue Boats Squadron, who went by the name the Crashboats. This area was hence called Crashboat by the military, and the name stuck.
