Island Hvar – Your place for best holiday

If you dream of taking cruise holidays but have no-one to go with or want to take a break on your own, don’t worry as there are lots of voyages suitable for singles.

Travelling on your own need not be expensive, as cruise lines are used to dealing with solo holidaymakers and have single cabins onboard many of their luxury ships. That also means you are sure to meet plenty of likeminded passengers if you want to socialise during your break.

You will find there is a wide range of cruises for singles available, with many solo travellers choosing voyages to Norway, the Baltic, the Canary Islands, Italy or Croatia.

Norway is one of the classic cruise destinations, thanks to its stunning coastline. You can’t fail to be amazed by the fjords and the scenery that surrounds them, and a holiday in the Scandinavian country will also give you the opportunity to visit beautiful cities such as Bergen, Stavanger and Tromso.

If you are looking at August cruises a voyage around the Baltic is likely to be a good choice. The weather in the region is great at that time of year and single holidaymakers will find plenty to do, as the cruises usually feature stops at historic cities like St Petersburg, Copenhagen, Helsinki and Tallinn.

The Canary Islands is another popular destination with single cruise passengers, particularly ones who are looking for a sunshine break. Whatever time of year you choose for your holiday, the temperature is likely to be high in the Canaries and you will discover there is plenty to see and do on Tenerife, Lanzarote and Gran Canaria.

Should you have an interest in history, you are likely to encounter plenty of likeminded people on a Mediterranean cruise that includes stops in Italy. Many of the country’s great Roman and Renaissance cities are accessible from the sea and you can look forward to some fascinating sightseeing in Venice, Rome, Sorrento, Elba and Portofino during your break.

Another cruise destination that combines history and culture with great weather is the Adriatic. A voyage down the coast of Croatia will take you to fascinating cities like Dubrovnik and Split, as well as the beautiful island of Hvar. Your holiday in the region is also likely to include stops in Crete, the Bosnian city of Kotor and Italy’s Amalfi coast – so there really is sure to be something for everyone.
