<p>[QUOTE=&quot;seasnake, post: 1086082, member: 25449&quot;]Just some observations about st maarten/st martin and aruba currency from a repeat visitor. Both St Maarten and Aruba florins are pegged at $1.78 to the US dollar and both are acceptable for transactions, even the atm&#039;s give you a choice of which currency it dispenses. St Maarten/St martin, being dual nationalities, has 3 currencies, the florin, us dollar and euro, all of which are accepted almost everywhere. Here is where it gets dicey though. The french side (euro) businesses have been losing customers because of the exchange rate so most restaurants set their own rates, some even peg it 1 to 1. Also Arubian florins and St Maarten florins were (are) not interchangeable although they are worth the same, go figure. So now we will have 2 more currencies to deal with, interesting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
