We've been to San Pedro twice before but did not pay much attention to the money exchange. Should we go to one of the banks? Thanks

just use your US $

There is no need to exchange at the banks. The merchants will gladly accept USD and will give change in BZ. If you play it right you will not be left with an excess of Belize money upon your return to the states.

Above all--- Have a blast while you are there!!!

Enjoy!

And if you do end up taking Belize money home, then you just have it handy for your next visit!

I have a Belize piggy bank for that purpose alone!!! And I carry Shiniest $1BZ as a lucky piece!

Me too AZ, I am looking at $30 BZ right now that I have to spend at Jets bar when I get in! And as always... I will return to the US with a $20 BZ as well as a $1 BZ as a lucky tailsman to get me back to SP!

Make sure you bring that " Piggy Bank" with you on this next trip. DCG and I are going to break it for you..

Oink, Oink!!!!!

Don't forget to stash some usd in your passport for your exit money.

Check your airline ticket first. Your exit money may have already been included in your ticket.
