Whether you're looking to have some fun, make lifelong friends, or find your soulmate, then you need to be one of these gay single cruises!
“The single supplement is HOW MUCH?!”
Whilst we love going on gay cruises together, we also do the occasional solo trip independently of one another – something we recommend everyone does, whether you're in a relationship or single. The bane of solo travelers, however, is having to fork out for the luxury of traveling solo…
You've also encountered it, right? The single supplement!

We get it. Cruises have to account for their costs. But what if you want to set sail and not have to factor in this unnecessary cost? A question we're often asked by many of our fabulous readers is “Which are the best gay cruises for singles?”
Well guys, we've got you covered right here!
We've scoured the net and found all the best gay cruises available for solo travelers and put them all in this detailed guide.

Why are gay cruises so expensive for singles?
One word: money. It sounds crass, but there’s a good reason behind it.
Most gay cruise liners assume that the majority of their bookings will be for two people. Therefore, most of their room options will charge per person – i.e., $500 per person in double occupancy. Therefore, someone traveling solo will need to pay $1,000 to stay in the room to make up the cost.
Seem unfair? Well, think of it this way. Couples buy twice the number of drinks, excursions, and spa treatments that a singleton would. So, for cruise companies to make up the loss, they need to charge singletons the full price of a room that would normally house two people.
Which cruise line is best for singles?
We personally think that Atlantis Events and The Cruise by La Demence tie for the title of ‘best gay cruise line for singles'.
With Atlantis Cruises, the whole experience is designed to help you meet new mates… and for the lucky ones, a new beau. From fancy cocktail hours where you can enjoy witty banter, to romantic dinners designed to get the singles talking, and, of course, the non-stop gay parties, their cruises are always a non-stop social event. They also offer a room share program where they will match you up with another solo traveler to share costs and are assigned based on smoking preferences and room categories. Even if you don’t walk away with the man of your dreams, you’ll at least leave with a group of lifelong friends.
If you're traveling solo on The Cruise by La Demence, there are also lots of fun social opportunities for singles, along with one of the best room share programs we've ever seen. You'll be sent a survey a few months before the cruise that you can fill out and you'll then be paired with another similar traveler based on your age, party style, smoking preference and languages spoken! You can also find your own buddy to share with via the Facebook group.
Is it weird to go on a gay cruise by yourself?
It’s only weird if you make it weird. Most people heading off on a gay cruise, single or coupled up, are going because they want a break. And they aren’t concerned with what anyone else is doing.
The hardest part will be convincing yourself to go solo. After that, you'll realize doing it alone can be an amazing experience. Plus, you won’t be the only one doing it alone, you’ll have the freedom to meet new guys, and you'll be the center of attention for all other singletons – especially on a party cruise like Atlantis where EVERYONE is looking to mingle…
Gay cruise lines with a Room Share program
What is a room share program, we hear you ask? It’s like playing Cupid. You give your bunking mate preferences to the cruise company ahead of the trip, such as whether they snore or smoke, and the organizers pair you up with the perfect match! It’s a great way for anyone traveling solo to meet new people or a potential partner…
Organizations like Brand G Vacations have a Facebook group so you can get to know your fellow cruisers ahead of the trip, and organize a roommate that way, but they don't actively pair you up. Saltyboys allocate rooms on the first night, after you've met your fellow travelers and decided who you might get along with.
Out Adventures, Olivia Travel and Atlantis Cruises will match you up with your ideal roommate based on your smoking and snoring preferences/tendencies or age. With The Cruise by La Demence, you'll be matched up based on even more personal preferences, including your age, the languages you speak and whether you're a big party animal or a bit more chill!
What are the gay lines offering discounts for solo travelers?
You may have already noticed but traveling on a cruise as a single person is ex-pen-sive. If you can't stand the thought of bunking with a stranger, well we've found one cruise line that offers discounts for those flying solo to take advantage of.
GaySail have a few discount codes, including the option to sleep in the crew cabin rooms if you're traveling alone. These are small quarters, and you won’t have much space in there to do anything other than sleep, but for a 30% price reduction, we think it’s totally worth it.
Are there any gay cruises for senior singles?
From our research, we couldn’t find any cruise that specifically caters to gay seniors.
Though that’s not to say an older gay singleton should feel dissuaded from booking a gay cruise. In fact, every cruise we’ve taken has been more than welcoming of its more mature clientele. BrandG is very popular among seniors, many of whom are single and looking to find love.
In our view, you’re never too old to see the world or find love. So go ahead and book that cruise you’ve been putting off for years.

There are so many moments throughout the gay cruise that will stay with you forever. One of these has to be snorkeling by the reefs of the deserted and uninhabited islands of Prickly Pear Cays in Anguilla. Here you can also do some world-class diving and discover a whole new world.

This might be a seven-night cruise, but you can also add on extra time to make it a two-week cruise, join different departure dates or even join a nude sailing option if you dare to bare it all. The cruise gives you time to explore the beautiful city of Dubrovnik, before hopping between the islands of Miljet, Lastavo, Vis and Brac, then ending up in the bustling city of Split.
Breakfast and lunch each day are included in the price. There is plenty of shore time included to explore Croatia's cutest villages, perhaps doing a spot of shopping or dining in local restaurants.

- Ship: Huge luxurious cruise ship
- Prices: from €1,649 per person
Sadly the 2024 Cruise has been cancelled and the next one is scheduled for 2025. Check back in November 2024 when details of the 2025 Cruise will be announced!
La démence is French for madness and darling is this cruise full of madness in the best possible way!
We LOVE the La Demence cruise, which is also just called The Cruise because there's no other gay cruise experience like it. Men from all around the world, from all backgrounds, ages, body types and party styles come together for a week of fun on the high seas.
Taking place every summer in Europe, this year The Cruise will travel from Italy through the Ionian Sea to ports in Albania, Greece and Malta, before heading up the coast of Italy again. Previous cruises have traveled from Rome to Athens and Lisbon to the Canary Islands, so you can expect plenty of fabulous destinations to explore every year.
Of course, since The Cruise is run by the same group that organizes exhilarating monthly gay parties in Brussels, you can also expect a week of fun and parties while you're on board! Taking place on a huge cruise ship with room for more than 3,500 gays, there are daily themed parties which usually take place around the main pool area. We had so much fun at the daily T Dances and the nightly parties, which of course, include plenty of sexy costumes!
As well as parties and opportunities for socializing, there's a theater featuring nightly shows, a nudist sun deck, hot tubs, duty-free shops, lounges, a gym and even a 24-hour darkroom for all sorts of naughty fun! Honestly, make sure you're well rested before embarking on this cruise because Lord knows you don't have much time to sleep…
Best of all, The Cruise is one of the best for solo travelers, as they have a program to match you up with a roommate that goes much further than just checking a box for smoker or non-smoker. A few months before departure you'll be able to fill out a survey including information on your age, partying habits, and even what languages you speak and you'll be matched up with someone similar PLUS sent their details so you can get in contact before the trip. You can also find your own travel buddy through the dedicated Facebook group!

If Greek island-hopping with 22 other gay guys sounds like a fun time, you'll want to get onto one of GaySail's Greece cruises.
This particular cruise departs from Athens including stops on Poros, Hydra and Spetses, although there are other dates available, some with different itineraries. You can also choose to do a gay nude sail Greek cruise if you prefer to relax in the buff!
During this cruise, you'll explore the Saronic Gulf of Greece, which is packed full of historically significant ancient ruins, secluded islands, vibrant nightlife, a warm culture and terrific cuisine. You'll be cruising on one of two luxury sailing yachts, each yacht houses 11 guests but you will also have opportunities to socialise with the passengers on the other yacht when the yachts drop anchor.
You'll also benefit from the services of a gay skipper as well as a gay cook to provide your breakfasts and lunch, but dinner will usually give you the opportunity to try local onshore restaurants. There will be plenty of chances to check out the gay nightlife (particularly in Athens) as well as partying with your new friends. During the day you can relax in the sun on the yacht or go swimming in secluded coves.
The gay cruise begins in one of our favourite cities, Athens, which offers a mix of incredible cultural history (think Parthenon, Acropolis…) and a fun gay scene around the Gazi area. From Athens, the cruise stops at several islands including Poros and our favourite, Hydra. Whilst most tourists will rave about Santorini and Mykonos (and for good reason!), Hydra is a less-visited island and totally underrated by tourists. It's extremely beautiful, with ancient merchant houses and cute tight narrow cobblestone streets. Everything here is transported by mules and donkeys because cars are banned!

Thanks for putting together all the gay cruise information. Very interesting.
Also, I think there is a small typo under #12 Caribbean Cruise:
"All you need for this Atlantis gay cruise are your best speedos and that leather hardness you've got stashed away in your closet!"
I think you mean "leather harness" ? Not sure. Just thought I would pass it on.
All the best.

I’m a gay 70 year old guy are there gay cruises that would have people my age ? I do get along great with guys younger than me but don’t want to be the only senior on the ship. I’d love to do a cabin share as it’s always more fun to have someone you know to do some things with. Thanks Joe Landquist

Hello Stefan: I appreciate the information regarding solo traveling. I have never been on a cruise, and at 71 I think its about time to take the plunge. Not your typical 71 year old, look and act younger for sure, in fact don't mind sleeping on a bunkbed, yeah the top bunk. I do prefer guys younger than me, and am in good shape, work out at the gym, run, bike, and yoga. While the cruise seems appealing, I feel somewhat intimidated when I see all the younger guys and really nobody my age. But then I am attracted to guys lot younger than me, so wondering if I would feel out of place/awkward. I hope I am making sense--lol! I guess my question is where does someone like me start? Any advise or guidance would be appreciated. Thanks, and take care. Happy Valentines to you and your husband! Michael

Thanks Michael! You're amazing and a huge role model for us all :) Advice? Honestly, just go for it -one of these cruises would be puuuurfect for you.
