Diving solo? Discover why liveaboard diving without a group might be the most rewarding and liberating dive trip you’ve ever taken.

Solo travel isn’t just for backpackers — it’s also for divers who want freedom, adventure, and unforgettable encounters.

If you’ve ever hesitated to join a liveaboard trip because you don’t have a dive buddy or a group, it’s time to rethink that. At Solmar V, we welcome solo travelers on every trip — and many of our guests arrive solo but leave with lifelong friends.

Here’s why diving solo can be the best decision you make:

You don’t need a group

Forget trying to coordinate time off, logistics, or matching skill levels with others. Just book your spot, show up, and we take care of the rest. We’ll pair you with a cabin mate if needed, and our dive guides make sure everyone’s included and supported.

You meet amazing people

Liveaboards create a special kind of community. Divers from all over the world come together, share stories, and bond over shared experiences underwater. Many solo travelers say it’s the people they met — not just the dives — that made the trip unforgettable.

You get more personal attention

With fewer distractions, you get to focus fully on your diving. Whether it’s improving your skills, asking for help with your camera setup, or just soaking in the marine life, going solo allows for a deeper connection to the experience — and to yourself.

You can follow your own rhythm

Want to nap between dives? Read on deck? Socialize or stay quiet? It’s all up to you. Solo travel means you get to choose how much you interact or recharge. There’s freedom in that.

It’s empowering

Doing something bold and adventurous on your own boosts your confidence and reminds you of what you’re capable of. Plus, it makes the memories even more meaningful.

Bottom line? You don’t need anyone else to take the dive of your life.
