This is a broad-brushed question that, I hope, will result in lots of answers. For the most part, I'm a single diver. I am looking for any trip anywhere in the world that is organized as group travel, such as through your local dive shop or dive clubs. I prefer land-based trips because of the single penalty on a liveaboard that charges double the price. I'm a pretty savvy traveler and make my own arrangements for trips, but I have been on a couple of group trips through dive shops in other states that worked out well. There are price breaks and extras on group trips that I cannot get on my own, such as airport transfers, included meals, free Nitrox. Sometimes the single penalty is far less and more manageable on my wallet than booking on my own.

Some places I know of already that does group trips:
Weaver's Dive Travel
Island Dreams Travel
Thunder Reef
Aquatic Sports.com
Oahu Scuba Diving
Jack's Diving Locker
Idaho Dive Pirates
Aquatic Adventures Ohio
SingleDivers.com
Quest Dive Adventures
scubanashville.com
watereescuba.com

So, if you have a trustworthy and reputable local dive shop that organizes group travel or a dive travel agency that organizes their own group trips, please throw out some names for me. I'd much appreciate it.

Hey there, Joan here. Aquatic sports / Tigard, OR is heading to Cozumel Nov 4-11. All inclusive reort. I am signed up as a single but have no room mate and may have to cancel. I am easy going and probably wont be in room much!

Thanks for reaching out. I've got another dive trip scheduled at that time. Send me a PM and maybe we can dive sometime in the future.
 
I travel solo on liveaboards all the time and have never paid a single penalty. Sometimes you share, occasionally you get lucky and get a cabin to yourself anyway.
