People going alone.. what do you REALLY think?

It also helps if you are staying at a funky spot where you can meet like-minded people (not es canar !) ie Bora Bora / Jet was quite a friendly place.

Mate exactly the same situation for my most recent time there! first time (2001) stayed in san an - as soon as i checked in the guy next door was there on his own adn immedietly had a beer buddy!... blah blah blah 1-2 day long sessions later... great time

second time, stayed in es canar sep 2003 - CRAP! full of familys and miles from anywhere. just booked the hol over the phone adn thought. ... ibizas a small place im sure it wont be that bad WRONG! got bored...

DONT GO TO Es CANAR! (unless your a coulple looking for a quite time)
 
You replied to my Ibiza Virgin message. Thanks for your reassurance re going solo. It's not ideal for me; I'm nervous but what the hell..
Enjoy! Kath
 
Ever year i go with some friends and my partner and again in september alone.
So many people to meet, so many things to do.
Just go for it and meet the happy bunch.

What is there to do for a chap on his own during the daylight hours?

go to the beach, go to bora bora. go to a town, i.e. ibiza town for example. go to the coffee bars......sit, and do some "people watching"

i find thats the beauty of going on your own. you can do your own thing.
 
like i already told for me, going to Ibiza is much better if you are alone, you can do what you want, you meet so many new people, you even maybe find a new love and there is no problem which club to choose on which night, ...!


Still 19 days to go!

Muco!
 
ive just come back i done it alone it was awesome met loads off ppl out there had a wicked time cant wait till next year
 
I came all the way from Australia on my own last year and had a great time. I will be coming again this year and meeting up with a mate there.

I enjoy my own company so it was no big deal for me. During the day, i hired a car and did alot of exploring so i was always keeping myself occupied.

The only thing that is difficult to do on your own is to go to a restaurant........that's the only time that i missed having someone to talk to.
 
i did it

i have just come back from going alone.

I found it quite easy to meet people. i put my own thread up on ibiza forums.

however, i found it better to just go to places i wanted to go, then i found it was easier to talk to people because i was happy to be there.

try bora bora, your hotel or campsite's bar. remember people are in holiday mode, they will be chatty and friendly also.

I am staying 4-18 in figuretas so why don`t we fix meeting point at bora bora every day at some hour=?

... 16 days left...

Muco
 
There is a huge list of people going on the Meeting Point section of the forum.. I'm sure soonish someone will arrange a time and place for us all to crash into each other!

:D
 
last year i went with my boyfriend and we were having a drink in one of the bars in ibiza town and this bloke just came over and started talking to me. I was like pee off we're having a drink together, what you coming over butting into our conversation for. :roll: He sort of got the picture that he was in the way and went away. We were thinking what a sad git for being on his own in the first place.

I'm now flying to Ibiza on my own in September for 4nts and crapping myself bigtime as it'll be the first time I go there alone. I'm not bothered about meeting poeple but am a bit concerned as I'll be myself and everyone will be in groups or couples and probably thinking whats that sad cow doing on her own for. I am not one of those people who just go up to people and start talking to them. I'm not going there to meet people. I'm going because I need a break and want to sunbathe, eat nice food and do some shopping.
 
I guess it depends on how you get approached by the lonesome individual.. if your in a couple having a drink together in a bar, sometimes its not really appropriate. But if your dancing next to each other in a club it would be rude not to talk!
 
i would never go up to a couple.I'm not that much of a social misfit!
I plan on going to bora bora during some days.. want to hire a car and see a bit of the island( if I have time and am not sleeping!)..
will def. be going to we love .. carl cox closing, meganite closing, maybe cocoon, Monday the 6th, and DC10.. the rest before that I"m not too sure!
