GEM charters and Captain Miguel always succeed in delivering magical experiences. As repeat customers, we highly recommend their services. Captain Miguel’s extensive experience and knowledge of the best spots for big fish, whale watching, snorkeling, and secret locations make every trip unforgettable. For example, during our most recent trip, we went fishing. We had a fantastic time, although we all had little experience, getting lots of Mahis, Snappers, Mackerels, and tuna Bonita. We also enjoyed a delicious ceviche made with our super fresh catch. With GEM charters, you’re guaranteed a memorable excursion you’ll treasure forever.

We had such an amazing time with Captain Miguel and Carlos! We caught a ton of fish and they made fresh ceviche on the boat! We also took time to snorkel around the island and stopped at a restaurant on the island that cooked our catch. They’re very accommodating to what you want to do on the trip. Miguel was very knowledgeable about the area and was open and willing to answer all questions and gave recommendations on restaurants, areas to visit, excursions, etc! Would definitely recommend booking a charter with them!

Thank you! I live here in Panama so I’m always here. I will not give a review on Tripadvisor as it would not be a favorable one and here’s why. We spent almost two hours trolling in the shipping lanes without a single catch. We asked the captain often if we could relocate to increase our chances. We were told “another 20 minutes and we will move” several times. Around the 2 hour 20 mark of the trip, he relocated up where eventually caught 2 fish. I personally would’ve preferred to drop line and bottom fish to give all 8 of us a better experience, but I was told they will ONLY troll. This left us all feeling we just paid $650 for a 4 hour boat ride. No Bueno!!!
