Why take this tour?

The best fresh water fishing in Panama is in the Panama Canal. This half-day tour starts with 6:00 am pick-ups, and a drive to the former U.S Canal Zone town of Gamboa. Fishing takes place in Gatun Lake, the artificial man-made navigation channel elevated 85 feet (26m) above sea level. We'll cruise next to the transiting ships and go off the side channels best for catching Oscar Bass Snook, Tilapia, Peacock Bass and Tarpon but also to observe wildlife. We’ll fish around the Monkey Islands (Isla Akee, Isla Barbacoa, and Isla San Pablo) unique for bio-diversity. Our trip includes Water, Snacks, Beverages, Bait and Equipment. You have the option of catch and release or have your fish for lunch. Gatun Lake of the Panama Canal guarantees a KINGFISHER EXPERIENCE you can't miss. Drop-offs are 12:30 pm approx.

About operator:

The epicenter of where our activities start is in the tropics, right above the equator (8.96o N 79.53o W) in the Republic of Panama. A strip of rainforest minutes away from downtown of the capital, Panama City sustains one of the modern engineering marvels of all time (The Panama Canal) and hosts one of the most biodiverse places on earth. This is where two experienced guides come together and combine the greatest potentials of the isthmus, the tropical rainforests, the two oceans and the Canal that binds them. Being a transit point to many, gives us the advantage to share the regions culture, history and ecology. Having two coasts is access to unlimited sources of fun and entertainment. Our tours are designed for all people and all ages that make Panama a worthwhile place for adventure and vacation. Tropical Kingfisher Tours is an initiative to make tourism sustainable and an opportunity for development. Our organization channels these potentials for real change and experience.
