Earthquakes in Panama — November 2025

2 earthquakes were recorded in Panama during November 2025, an average of 0.1 per day.

2 reached magnitude 4 or above and 0 reached magnitude 5 or above. The average focal depth was 24 km.

The month's largest event in Panama was a magnitude 4.6 earthquake near Boca Chica, Panama on 08 November 2025 at 04:31 UTC. A magnitude 4.6 earthquake radiates roughly 120 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.

That is close to the Panama monthly average of 2 events over the period we cover, and down from the 4 recorded the previous month.

100% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 0% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). Almost everything here is crustal. That is characteristic of transform faulting or continental deformation rather than subduction — and it means shaking at the surface is strong for the magnitudes involved.

By band, the catalogue holds 2 in the magnitude 4 range.

The month's largest events were M4.6 near Boca Chica, Panama on 08 November at 38 km; M4.5 near Manaca Norte, Panama on 13 November at 10 km.

That is close to the 2 events Panama averages per month across the 21 months on record.
