Mexico
Pemex Estación San Carlos Sonora
Fuel Station
This large Pemex station sits at the junction where Highway 15 meets the coastal road to San Carlos, making it a natural fuel stop for overlanders heading into Sonora’s backcountry. Clean restrooms, basic snacks, and usually reliable fuel supplies make it a solid resupply point before hitting remote desert trails.
The station can get busy with local traffic during morning and evening hours, but diesel and premium gasoline are typically available. Staff speaks basic English given the proximity to expat communities in San Carlos.
