Euros are used for all transactions in Melilla. You'll find several banks (with ATMs)
around Ave de Juan Carlos I Rey. Most will buy or sell dirham at an inferior rate to the
Moroccan dealers hanging around the ferry port or the border.
On the Moroccan side of the border you can change cash at the Crédit du Maroc.
There's also a Banque Populaire with an ATM 200m further into Morocco; walk straight
ahead to the crossroads and it's on your left on the road to the port.
