All the usual suspects but you take pot luck on the buddy you get, as
do they. I've been away on my own with Explorers and as a single in a
group on Livaboards.

If you aren't taking the missus with you to enjoy a little rest (I am off to
Dahab soon with my non diving wife) then a liveaboard is a good option. I
often go on my own and have never met up with duff fellow passengers yet.
You will have to share a cabin with someone. Never been a problem for me.

Wow, the rules must be different on your side of the pond. The last thin I
would ever do, or expect to survive, is telling my wife I was taking a
diving trip designed for singles, let alone considering a liveaboard trip
with such a group.

Good luck.

My initial reaction to seeing diving holidays advertised as for
'singles' is that it'll be some sort of speed dating plus diving
combo...!!

The chance of that would be fine thing indeed!

Always in it, just the depth that varies.

Heron Island - Now there is a good place to take the wife. My wife enjoyed
it immensely while I was out there diving
