Thanks for all of the info.

I was thinking that the smaller vendors wouldn't take CC, but I was concerned that US dollars might not be accepted either in some locations ,so I should have some XPF dollars. Now that I know you get more bang for your buck using local currency I will get more XPF dollars than I had originally thought.

My husband and I will be on a 10 day Paul Gauguin cruise with 2 days pre cruise at the I.C. Tahiti and 2 days post cruise at the Moorea Hilton. How much money would you suggest I exchange at the airport---or really is there any advantage to exchanging US currency to Tahitian money?
