About us
We expect our members to show up with an open heart and a genuine intention to connect. This isnβt about collecting phone numbers or keeping score this is for people who are ready to build something real. We ask that everyone be respectful, kind, and present, both during events and in our group interactions. Being on time, communicating honestly, and treating others with warmth goes a long way here.
Our community is built on honesty, mutual respect, and emotional openness. We believe that meaningful relationships start with shared values, not just shared interests. Thatβs why we encourage real conversations, active listening, and a little courage to be your true self. Weβre all about creating a space where vulnerability is welcomed and people feel safe to be who they really are.
While our main focus is personal connection, not professional networking, you never know where a great conversation might lead. That said, we donβt organize events for job hunting or business pitching our goal is to help you find love, not clients. That being said, many of our members have become close friends first, and sometimes that friendship naturally expands into other parts of life.
We typically host events every two to three weeks, mixing things up with outdoor adventures, cozy dinner meetups, wine tastings, beach walks, and seasonal socials. The pace gives you time to reflect and follow up with connections without feeling overwhelmed. Whether you're new to the area or just ready to put yourself out there again, our schedule is designed to fit into real life not take over your calendar.
If youβre tired of swiping and ready to meet people face to face in a relaxed, pressure free environment, this is your group. Silver Strand Singles is more than just events itβs a community of locals who believe love is worth slowing down for. Come as you are, ready to connect, and letβs see where a real conversation might lead.
