Local Currency Converter
Useful Information
The local currency in Bodrum Turkey is the Turkish Lira, but you can also spend Euros, British Pounds, and US Dollars at most all of the main tourist venues. When you pay in a foreign currency, you willl receive your change in local currency, so it's imperative that you become familiar with the exchange rates. However, it is important to know that most of the smaller village shops will be likely to only take cash in the form of Liras. And...in bodrum, cash rules. You will most often be able to get discounts and to bargain with sellers if you are paying cash; in many places a 10% cash discount is standard, though you may need to ask for it to show you are "in-the-know".
