We've put together a list of
team-building activities for company retreats in
Antalya
, including options that work well for both small and large teams.
Boat trips along the Antalya coast, walks through Kaleiçi, and time near Düden waterfalls shape this retreat agenda with a laid-back Mediterranean feel.
Antalya is a strong option for teams that want a warm, resort-style retreat with a mix of beaches, history, and modern infrastructure. A company retreat in Antalya combines Mediterranean scenery with all-inclusive comfort, making it easy to organize both work sessions and group experiences.
Most teams fly into Antalya Airport (AYT), which is about 20–30 minutes from the main resort areas. The airport has strong international connections, especially from Europe and the Middle East, making it accessible for global teams.
April to June and September to October usually offer the best balance, with temperatures around 22–32°C. Summer is hotter, often exceeding 35°C, while winter is mild but more suited to indoor-focused retreats.
Lara Beach is popular for upscale resorts close to the airport, Belek is known for golf resorts and larger hotel setups, and Kaleiçi offers a more historic and boutique atmosphere. The right area depends on whether the retreat is more resort-based or cultural.
Teams often plan boat trips along the coast, beach activities, rafting in Köprülü Canyon, golf sessions, guided tours of ancient sites like Perge or Aspendos, and wellness experiences. The destination is especially strong for outdoor and resort-based activities.
A 3 to 4 day retreat is typical. This allows enough time for meetings, organized activities, and relaxed evenings without making the schedule feel too packed.
Antalya stands out for its combination of resort infrastructure and access to historical sites. Compared to cities like Istanbul, it offers a more relaxed, all-in-one setup where accommodation, meetings, and activities are often in one place.
Yes, many resorts are designed for conferences and group events, with built-in meeting spaces and activity options. Teams can easily combine structured sessions with leisure time without needing to travel far.
Heat during peak summer, choosing the right resort setup, and planning activities in advance are key factors. It also helps to align the retreat style with whether the team prefers a resort-focused or more exploratory experience.
Teams can enjoy Turkish cuisine, seafood, and international dining within resorts or local restaurants. Social experiences often include group dinners, beachside events, and relaxed evenings with a mix of local and international influences.
In full transparency, everyone loved it. People are still talking about it. The main goal was team bonding and you helped me to reach it.
Everyone was delighted by the venue, the activities, the transfer coordination and everything! Long live Surf Office! Can’t wait to plan our next company retreat with you :)
Our team offsite retreat was excellent - great food, weather and activities. Even the people that couldn't attend wished they could have made it. And the location was perfect. Surf Office - Thank you very much for your help and support with planning and organization - and Beatriz our retreat manager was fantastic - fast, efficient and always kept us informed. It really made the difference. It really did!
Surf Office helped us plan our 60 person staff retreat, scoping locations, venues, restaurants, activities, and more. Angela was really on top of it and paid close attention to all of the details. Definitely saved us time on research and back-and-forth with all of the various contact persons!
We went into talks with SurfOffice and hit it off with the founders to make this happen. Theres a team that will guide you through the choice and a platform for when you are to arrive with an agenda. Our team likes to bring in community members to these types of events and the crew is excited. The onboarding is going well and we paid the deposit, and we're looking forward to the trip. Our party had to reduce significantly due to constraints and the team has been accomodating so far. 5* everyone had a good time and Rayna on site made everyone feel comfortable.
The location was great, the areas dedicated to us were amazing and all things we asked for were there - also, I love the shared dashboard to organize.
I recently worked with Surf Office to organize an offsite retreat for my company in Gran Canaria, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Beatriz, the retreat planner, was incredible. From start to finish, she was exceptionally organized, responsive, and attentive to every detail. Planning a retreat for a team can be daunting, but Beatriz made the process seamless. She answered all my questions quickly and thoroughly, and her recommendations were spot-on. The offsite itself was beyond amazing – the accommodations and activities were perfectly tailored to our team’s needs. Surf Office took all the stress out of planning and delivered an unforgettable experience for our group. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to plan a work retreat. If you’re lucky enough to have Beatriz as your planner, you’re in great hands!
The most popular team building activities are surf lessons, SUP lessons and tapas night but there are plenty more to choose from.
