GROCERY SHOPPING
km144, Blvd Riviera Nayarit, Bucerías

The best store for all of your grocery needs for local and foreign products. Also has some prepared foods, bakery, butcher, household goods, sporting goods, electronics and pharmacy. Open 24hrs.
Boulevard Riviera Nayarit Esq, Las Palmas No. 596 Bucerías, Nay.
CHEDRAUI
A similar shopping experience to Mega but a little smaller with few produce and meat sections. 7am-11pm daily.
Paseo Flamingos Lote 8-1, Flamingos Club Residencial, Bucerias
LA COMER
Another large grocery store with similar products as Mega. In fact, it is located right beside!
For local produce and household goods, there are many local grocers called Mini
Supers located in Bucerias, La Cruz, Sayulita, and Punta de Mita.
Fresh fish and seafood can be found early mornings at the Fish Market in La Cruz.
Also, in every town you will find small, family run Pharmacies (Farmácias).
For larger stores, there is also a chain called Guadalajara Farmácias, located along the highway.
OXXO Convenience Stores – found along the highway and main roads. Many
have ATM’s where you can withdraw pesos with your foreign debit card. Be sure to shop around as they don’t seem to be consistent in the fees!
