We would like to get some € upon our arrival.
I was wondering where is the most convenient ATM on the french side as we drive from the airport to Grand Case (GCBC). I was looking for a location on the way without significant detour, relatively easy parking/ stopping, that I can run in and out.

Also, is there a maximum transaction or daily withdrawal limits?
Also, what € denomination does the ATM dispense ( looking for both large and small bills)?

Thanks
Nick

The ATM at the airport dispenses in euros or usd. there was a third currency - I believe guilders but can't be sure. No idea about limits on the island.

The Exchange Rate is going to be set by YOUR bank, not the French-side ATM. Withdrawal limits are going to be set by BOTH banks, YOURS and the ATM. Check your daily withdrawal limit with your bank, and adjust as necessary. Once you've done so, you're at the mercy of the ATM bank. I've been successful in withdrawing €800. I've never been able to withdraw €1000.

The ATM outside the Gourmet Marche in Porto Cupecoy dispenses dollars and euros, as does the RBC in front of Carrefour.

There's one just to the right (if you are facing the market) of the old Simply market. I think there are at least 2 ATMs there dispensing both dollars and Euro.
