RIGUY40 Posted March 10, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 10, 2017 which currency should I use in Cozumel? When I went to Mexico last year I used USD AND I got change back in Peso. I felt like I was getting cheated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimicaj Posted March 10, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 10, 2017 If you're doing a lot of shopping you may do slightly better with pesos but you're going to pay an exchange fee, so IMO if you're just there for the day it's not worth bothering with. Just use USD. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traveling Library Posted March 11, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 11, 2017 If you pay in USD then ask for your change in USD. We do and usually get it. Exchange rate may be better if you pay in Pesos but for 1 day stick with USD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted March 11, 2017 #4 Share Posted March 11, 2017 We've always just have used the US Dollar in Cozumel. Most well known restaurants/bars will give you change back in US. Normally pay with 20's (US). Just ask. For small purchases we take very small US bills. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted March 11, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 11, 2017 The US dollar is widely accepted at every tourist spot on Cozumel. Bring lots of $1 and $5 bills so that you do not have change issues. Cab drivers all over the world never seem to have change when you pull out a $20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
