      Europe is a notoriously romantic place, but there are plenty of reasons to visit the continent as a single. There are scenic tours for singles, where you can visit landmarks, museums, and attractions with unattached singles like yourself. There are also plenty of destinations for those looking to party and dance the night away. Who knows, you could find your soul mate in one of Europe's romantic cities.

    Vacation in Mykonos, Greece

    • There are many Greek Islands to choose from, but each island offers something different. Mykonos offers a variety of activities for singles. Like many other Greek Islands, Mykonos features brilliant blue waters, a mountainous landscape and traditional Greek architecture. Singles can enjoy the many bars, taverns and nightclubs that make Mykonos a popular destination for young adults and singles. According to the Travel Channel, the availability of nude beaches adds to Mykonos' reputation as the most wild island in Greece. There are multiple nightclubs and bars along Paradise Beach, and nightclubs stay open into the morning. When you're not partying, you can take in some of the island's other attractions. You can jet ski or sail off the coast, lay out and enjoy the sun, visit the windmills, pose for photo ops, or spend an afternoon shopping at the quaint shops.

    Book a Singles Cruise

    • Carnival organizes many cruises just for singles. You can sale to the Caribbean, Bahamas, Mexico and Europe with other singles.

    Adults Only Hotels

    • Find other singles in Europe by staying at an adults-only resort. There are plenty of resorts that cater to families and couples, but there are adults-only resorts as well.

The hotel features a restaurant, bar and a 24-hour front desk to accommodate your needs. The hotel is in close proximity to the ocean, but there is a heated pool on the hotel property, if you prefer. Relax with a massage or dip in the Jacuzzi. The Hotel Caesar Augustus in Capri, Italy, is also adult-only. This resort features a library, restaurant, outdoor pool, tennis court and cocktail lounge. The hotel concierge can help you book tours and excursions. The Terrace & Lounge Bar on the property faces the ocean. During the summer, guests can view the fireworks shows from the patio.
