There is internet at Dolphin Island marina, a one mile walk east of the Noyo Marina. Breakfast, lunch, and beer can be purchased here as well. There is a marine supply store nearby but poorly stocked and overpriced. Just up the hill there is a large grocery store, a laundromat, and auto parts store. Here you can also catch the Mendocino Transit Authority bus into downtown Fort Bragg, where there are all the usual stores.
