In Cancun Mexico what currency is more widely used is it the peso or the US dollar?

Travel Tips
Since it's Mexico the official currency is the peso but US dollars are accepted everywhere in Cancun, although the exchange rate is not the best so try to get pesos in a money exchange booth at the airport or a bank (better exchange rates than at the hotel zone). In almost every shop or business you'll find the prices marked in both pesos and US dollars so feel free to use whatever currency you have but keep in mind that if they need to give you change back it will be done in pesos.

Last time I checked, the peso was the currency in Mexico.
Most people take dollars, no problem. Check the exchange rate. Most people use the "official" rate but if they're doing it 10 to one b/c the official rate is too difficult to deal with, go ahead and get some pesos. Very few places take pesos only. Oh, and if you need money, ATM's only dispense pesos.
They want money!! Period!!
Your in mexico it sure isn't the US dollar!
It Is all Pesos, But there are money changing booths everywhere in the tourist zone, or can be done at your hotel.
pesos because you are in Mexico, but most of turist places accept dollars, the only down on that is that their rate is very bad, you are better off exchanging money before your arrival.
