Currency exchange onboard for Cuba?

Probably not possible to exchange onboard because the Cuban government gets a 10% tax on exchange of US dollars in addition to the usual 3% exchange fee. Cuban currency is very controlled, but strangely one Cuban peso = 1 US Dollar.

 

So, if you have any other main-stream currency (ie euros, pounds, Canadian $ etc) bring that and exchange that first and you will only pay the 3% fee. Much better exchange.
