Currency in Cabo San Lucas Mexico |

The
peso is the national currency although U.S.
dollars are widely accepted in most businesses
throughout Los Cabos. Major credit
cards are also accepted in most establishments.
Banks offer currency exchange during business
hours. Universal ATM's are widely available
for cash withdrawals at the current exchange
rate. Visitors can access ATM’s in
several systems such as VISA, MC, Cirrus
and PLUS. Many ATM’s have menus in
English. The ATM’s only dispense pesos.

Money
Exchange: |
|
You can change
money at a convenient Casa
de Cambio (Money Exchange House). These are money
exchangers that are open long hours and
provide quick service. Although dollars
are widely accepted in resort areas (and
are often preferred), we recommend using
pesos during your stay. Hotels also exchange
dollars but these normally give you the
lowest rates, use them as a last resort.
You will find better rates at the exchange
houses, and the best rates at banks.
To exchange money in the banks you can
only do it between 9 AM and 1PM (even
though the banks are open longer). Expect
a slightly lower rate for travelers checks.
Commissions are not generally charged
on money exchanges. While foreign currencies
other than U.S. dollars are sometimes
accepted – particularly at major
resorts—we recommend you use pesos
during your stay. We also recommend exchanging
$20-$30 into pesos before leaving home.
This way you will arrive in Mexico with
pesos for cab fare to you hotel and for
tipping. Also, carry $20 to $30 dollars
in one-dollar bills—they are great
for tipping and are quite appreciated.
