Exchanging dollars for pesos is very easy, but not really necessary. Practically
everyone on Cozumel will gladly accept dollars for payment. If you wish
to exchange money, the best rate will be found at the banks, but there
are several exchange houses all over town. The hotels usually offer a
lower rate of exchange. Be wise and carry a small calculator to help you
do quick calculations.

15-20% of meal |
|
$0.75-$1.00
per bag |
|
$1.00 per person,
per day |
|
10-15%
of cost of the trip, if the quality of the service received was
professional, safe, and enjoyable. |

| Quick
Tip: Bring about $25 in $1-bills to make quick change. You will find
most places unable to make change for large bills. |
