It's Puerto Escondido
and I doubt it. There aren't really much of any operable facilities there yet that I am aware of. Others will know more about it but I've never seen
any indication of gas there.
Fill up in Loreto.

Contact the folks at http://www.ElFuerte.com the sport fishing operation based at Puerto Escondido (means 'hidden port') for that question. Sallysouth's (Msal)
daughter is the owner and has an Internet cafe there.
Hey JR, good job as 'Baja Spell Checker'!

Gas is available in Loreto
The port captain will make arrangements for you. Hail him on VHF. Tell them how much you want, take you boat down to the docks in the little harbor.
They will bring a truck with barrels down, and a pump / hose.
If you have a shoal draft boat you will have no problems. I filled my 31 footer this way.
