The local currency is the Eastern Caribbean dollar (EC$). It is fixed to the US Dollar at EC$2.7 = 1 US Dollar.
US Dollars are accepted everywhere, including government offices.
Most major credit cards are accepted in hotels, and in most restaurants and shops.
There are several ATMs at various places around the island.
The I cent and 2 cent EC coins have been withdrawn from circulation. These coins are no longer valid. A price rounding system has been implemented within the ECCU countries for the settlement of cash transactions only, where the total payment is rounded to the nearest five cents. Non-cash payments using cheques, debit and credit cards are not affected and are not rounded.

Does anyone have a map of dive sites with GPS coordinates and/or know if there are bouys for dinghys at dive sites for independant diving without an operator?
To be permitted to dive in Anguilla’s Marine Parks you must be accompanied by local dive operator. See https://naturalresources.gov.ai/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/NEW-MPA-Brochure.pdf
Wondering if the listed cruising permit costs for Anguilla are in EC or US dollars. One week permit cost listed is 1125 for 5 to 20 tons. If in US dollars this would be $416.66. Big difference.
Hi Stephen!
The cruising permit fees for Anguilla are in EC. I’ve updated Noonsite to add clarity and provided a link to the brochure about the National Park – https://naturalresources.gov.ai/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/NEW-MPA-Brochure.pdf.
Great question and we hope this helps others when using Noonsite.
Kind regards,
