4. FAQs: Solo Diving & Singles Scuba Trips

  1. What is the difference between solo diving and traveling alone as a diver?

Many people confuse solo diving with being a single diver traveling alone and joining guided dives. However, these are two different things. Solo diving means being completely alone underwater, while scuba singles vacations allow divers to travel independently while still diving with a buddy or a group.

  1. Can you scuba dive alone?

Technically, yes—but it requires special training. Most diving agencies discourage solo diving, and many countries prohibit it. However, due to increasing demand, some organizations offer solo diver certification courses, such as the PADI® Self Reliant Diver course or SDI SOLO DIVER. These programs are only available to experienced divers with over 100 logged dives.

  1. What are the risks of solo diving?

Solo divers must be fully self-reliant because they won’t have a buddy to assist in emergencies. This means carrying extra equipment, planning each dive carefully, and having advanced problem-solving skills. Due to these risks, solo scuba diving should only be done by well-trained, highly experienced divers.

  1. Is solo diving the same as traveling solo for diving?

No. Many divers travel alone but still join guided dives with a group. This is common in singles scuba trips and dive vacations for singles, where divers can meet new people and share their passion for the underwater world.

  1. Why are dive trips for singles becoming so popular?

Traveling alone has become a major trend, and diving is no exception. Many single divers take the opportunity to explore the best dive sites in the world without needing a travel companion. Plus, diving is a social sport, making it easy to connect with others during scuba diving singles trips.

  1. Will I be able to find a dive buddy if I travel solo?

Yes! If you join a singles scuba diving trip with Dressel Divers, we’ll match you with a buddy who has a similar certification level and speaks your language whenever possible. Our scuba diving centers also have multilingual Divemasters in training who can join your dives.

  1. What other options do you offer for single divers?

Aside from daily dive trips, Dressel Divers Stay & Dive packages provide accommodations with unlimited diving, making them perfect for single scuba divers looking for a hassle-free experience.
