We are doing the Nov 18 Marquesas, Tuamotus & Society islands cruise. Do we need to change money for these islands? I understand that US currency is accepted in Papeete, but what about the other ports? Advice on where to change money & how much would be needed for Tshirts, trinkets, etc?

 

Thank you

I would convert a small amount, perhaps a hundred or two, especially to the Marquesas, since there are wonderful wood carvings on one island, and tapas cloths on another, and they might want cash. I doubt there would be many ATM's up there.

 

But, there is an ATM at the airport, and there are some in downtown Papeete. We always convert a small amount, even just for the Society Islands.
