Wouldn’t charter fish with anyone else. - I love the team at Gem. I had to cancel a prior trip due to a last minute change of plans. They held my deposit at full value and applied it almost a year later to my trip. Very classy.
I booked their new 38’ boat; it was like being in a Lexus on the water - super comfortable and fast.
Miguel and Joelle made the day memorable and fun. The Amberjack ceviche and the grilled mackerel were mouthwatering. It’s gonna be hard to eat “fresh” fish in restaurants back home thinking about how good today’s catch tasted on the boat. Getting on the water at the crack of dawn was well worth it. I can’t wait to do a two-day to chase the big fish.
Thank you to the entire Gem team.

A+ experience - Was amazing time that we had we took a 37 foot boat for two couples, and we even ordered kosher food on board. They took us on an eight hour cruise to the most beautiful islands of Pearl Island. The captain and his crew were amazing and such a great time I would highly recommend very professional service and clean and on time.!

Best fishing experience in Panama - My son and I went with them for an afternoon fishing session and had a good time. The crew clearly knew what they were doing and got us fish while telling us stories about the Panama Canal and the area where we were. The trip’s highlight was the fresh made ceviche and the sunset cruise on the way back.

A Perfect Day in the Pearl Islands! - We spent a day with our friends celebrating a leap year birthday. Miguel and his first mate Moses made the day an exceptional celebration. Everyone that wanted to fish caught a fish and the rest of us enjoyed the scenic trip with great food. Miguel took us to two pristine islands in the Pearl Islands off the shore of Panama City. We had enough time to explore and enjoy good food. It was a perfect day thanks to Miguel who is the best boat captain ever!!

Fun day under the sun! - I highly recommend Gem Charters for their fantastic services and a fun day under the sun. Jennifer was so helpful during the booking process and answered all of our questions so promptly. Captain Miguel and his co-captain were excellent and so reliable! They accommodated all of our requests and made sure we saw everything we wanted to experience. They safely took us to remote islands and gave us a tour of the Panama Canal - Captain Miguel spoke very clear English so we learned a lot about the canal and it's history! Thank you Gem Charters for creating fun memories for my friends and I and making it the highlight of our trip. We would absolutely recommend Gem to our friends in Panama for when they have visitors.

5 out of 5 experience! - We had such a fantastic day with Moses and Oscar and I can't recommend them enough. They took us to a private beach at the archipelago for us to snorkel, taking into consideration the tides so we had the best possible experience. Jennifer at the office was also super professional and friendly and gladly answered all our questions (they were a lot). She also made sure to acomodate our request for a fully kosher catering service. 5 out of 5!
