Chedrahui and Soriana are the closest markets to the airport in San José del Cabo. The last gas station is in La Ribera (Pemex) across from the last Bank/ATM (Banorte) along with the last modest grocery store on the right side of the highway called El Rey. Cabo Pulmo has two very small grocery stores offering a very limited selection of products; like drinking water, some fresh produce, wine, beer and snacks. A tiny farmers market takes place every Thursday over Calle Loma Vista from 10 to 11 am, this from November to early June.
