Saily’s Panama eSIM starts at $7.99 for 1 GB. For about a week, the 5 GB plan ($29.99) covers maps, rides and messaging.
The catch: Panama data costs more than in most destinations, and there’s no unlimited plan.
Panama trips usually pair Panama City and the Canal with Bocas del Toro or the San Blas islands. Ride-hailing in the city and boat transfers to the islands are easier with data, and a Panama eSIM is ready at Tocumen.
