Crash Boat Beach - Puerto Rico


Loading...
Crash Boat Beach is a shore accessible salt water dive site, located in Aquadila, PR, Puerto Rico. This dive site has an average rating of 4.00 out of 5 from 4 scuba divers. The maximum depth is 26-30ft/8-9m. The average visibility is 61-70ft/19-21m.

From the beach you can follow the main pier out on eihter side. Facing out on the left are two square free standing piers. The pillars on all of the piers are covered in sealife and many fish hang around underneath. On the right of the main pier there is one self standing pier same as on the left, but if you go to the right of the self standing pier there is one that has collapsed and is completly submerged. Every day you can find sergeants, tangs, angelfishes, filefishes, trunkfishes, goatfishes, butterflyfishes, damselfishes, flounders, snappers, wrasses, moray eels, rockfishes, sand divers; occasionally you can find sea turtles, porkfishes, flying gurnards, squids, octopus, trumpetfish; and if you are lucky enough you can even find seahorses. IF you go straight out past the piers the water will drop to 80 feet but there is nothing to see.

Night dive and sunken pier. First attempt to dive to bottom to check visibility. So bad we lost each other. Surfaced, regrouped. Dived again, lost each other again, surfaced and regrouped. Saw Lobster morey eel and needle fish. This dive location may not be accurate.

Lots of life including an eel. Great starter location. If you are comfortable diving you don’t need a guide. Just swim out to the end of the dock drop down and enjoy. If you bring a buoy you will need to tie it off to swim in and out of the rigs.

Outstanding night dive, the pilons are covered with yellow coral flowers that only appear at night. Note: Have someone drop you off or stay with your vehicle, the criminals will break into it.
