Cory Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 CUC’s are only available for purchase in Cuba, they are not available for sale outside the country. Bring Canadian money, you will be charged extra for US dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darsky Posted August 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 thx to both,albeit confused with opposite answers. Roy-worth the call tho' Anyone fish Varadero?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greencoachdog Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 (edited) CUC’s are only available for purchase in Cuba, they are not available for sale outside the country. Bring Canadian money, you will be charged extra for US dollars. I would think that if you took US currency to Cuba, the vendors would jump all over it... something to spend in Miami after the raft ride!!!

Cory Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Check with Tonyb or see if you can dig up one of his old posts. We didn't fish while we were there. Take a trip to Havana while you are there it is worth it for a day trip. US readers should not read anything posted above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirfish Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Darsky, Cory is right. You can only get thier cuban peso there and bring canadian dollars. Most resorts have a exchange banco where you can convert and get a good rate.....that is unless you bring U.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cory Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 I agree!!! btw... are you getting a tan? ... or is it this? Neither, with the bump in extra posts I now have a shot at passing your number of useless posts….. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Neither, with the bump in extra posts I now have a shot at passing your number of useless posts….. Cory, I know that you're bucking to be banned so that you can go back to your cronies and whine to them and you can all then agree what terrible people we are. You also think that you're being protected here. Well, you were. Your last several posts have been nothing but flames against other members of this board and the board itself. The mods have been very patient with you because you've obviously got some kind of a problem. Get it checked out Bud. I'm serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
