    Panama Family Solo Trip

    Half Day Trip (PM) on March 11, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Moises and Joel were great. We went during Spring Break and wanted a family only trip. We have 10 and 12 yr old boys. our youngest has had issues with sea sickness prior, and I told then about it. They altered our course to be as smooth as possible, but still have them catch fish. It changed his outlook on offshore fishing. He has more confidence and wants more offshore fishing. Thank you. Boat has WiFi in middle of ocean. also bluetooth for radio. highly recommend and will rebook next time!

    Great fishing tour to Taboga

    Full Day Trip – Taboga Island on May 12, 2024

    It was for me the 3rd time to book the tour with GEM Charters. Same as the previous trips, we enjoyed A LOT!! Leaving to the ocean with sunrise, trolling, BBQ on boat, small relaxing time at beach, everything is special. As always, Jennifer and the ship crews are so kind, attentive and professional. Very appreciated, too, that they are always very helpful to our small kids. We do hope to have the next trip very soon and it will be with GEM again.
