All charters are subject to weather conditions and we reserve the right to cancel any trip due to bad weather.  Come Fish Panama requires that all clients take out travel insurance for their trips. In the event that a trip is canceled or rescheduled due to unforeseen weather-related circumstances, we cannot accept responsibility for any loss of trip costs, airfares, lost vacation time, or any other financial consequences as a result of their booking.

Come Fish Panama makes every effort to conduct all trips on time and to the proposed itinerary.  However, if Come fish Panama is unable to take you fishing in the event that a tropical cyclone warning or a strong wind warning is issued by the Bureau of Meteorology for all or part of your trip, or in the event of any other natural disaster that prevents us from running your trip, or if wind speeds exceed the safe operating limits specified for our operation by the Panamanian Maritime Authority.

Financial consequences of any fishing time that is missed and any travel connections or accommodation bookings that need to be changed as a result of these unforeseen weather events are to be claimed on your travel insurance. Cancellations are exceptionally rare, but Come Fish Panama believe travel insurance is a wise investment.
