Singles travel around the world is the goal of Best Single Travel. With over half the population of the U.S. being single, there are few options for singles or solo traveler. As Best Single Travel finds these trips, tours or vacations they will be posted on their website.

One of the new discoveries is SeaScapes's Singles Adventure Sailing in Greece, Turkey and Thailand for singles and solo travelers in their 20s 30s 40s and 50s. Singles Adventure Sailing is not the typical singles cruises, no maid service, or stewards onboard. The small yachts sail with no more then 8 passengers and dock on islands that the big cruise liners can't.

The "mostly singles" trips tend to attract the active, get-out-there-and-do-it types. The group dynamics are usually very strong - when traveling solo, people tend to make more effort to get to know one another. With the team-spirit that boat life creates, the laid-back, hedonistic atmosphere of the islands, people get to know each other real fast - many folks go home with close friendships that have lasted years since.

The itineraries are mostly based on two week routes however; they are arranged such that it's easy to sail for one week only. Itineraries have been developed over several years to take best advantage of prevailing wind conditions, and alternating tranquil anchorages with lively ports, etc. However, one of the greatest advantages of a sailboat is the ability to be flexible - and if the whims of the wind gods or those on board dictate that the route be changed - it can be changed.

The Greece-AND-Turkey trips sail to SeaScape's favorite islands in the Dodecanese; from tiny fishing villages where the traditional Greek spontaneity and lively spirit lives on - to the bright lights and party nights of the more developed islands, where one can eat, drink and be merry in modern-day Greece! The other favorite spots tend to be the quieter, less "touristy" parts of Turkey, where the locals give us a real family welcome. Explore more ancient sites, luxuriate in Turkish baths - and even learn to belly-dance!

Mediterranean Singles Sailings run from June through September. Four months in winter the yachts sail the Australia's Whitsunday islands and Thailand.
