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.
It was amazing. I mean, the team was just absolutely over the top, thrilled. Everything was fantastic.
As we wrap up our first-ever company offsite in Portugal, I feel so grateful for the incredible experience we've shared as a team. This past week has been nothing short of amazing, filled with enriching and productive sessions, workshops, and memorable moments.
It was a massive success, the team loved every part of it and all of the restaurants, activities, transfer, etc. that you organised were excellent. I will certainly be contacting Surf Office again for anything I plan in the future.
We had a great retreat! So far all individual feedback that came back through a survey we sent out to the team, was super positive! Everyone really enjoyed it!
We loved it! Our management had very specific requirements for a retreat location... remote and in nature but with room for interaction. The venue and every aspect of this retreat matched that. We loved it so much that we even consider repeating the venue.
Everyone has commented on how well the retreat went, and we really do appreciate everything that you did to make it go so smoothly.
It was amazing. The whole team enjoyed everything. The hospitality, the area, the apartments, the sea view, the hotel staff, the old town. It was perfect, it was our best offsite.
Everything was amazing. So I have only good things to say. Team loved it. Again, I was very congratulated. They were very happy. Everything was on spot.
We have organized company retreats for our distributed 30 people team multiple times with Surf Office and the team has loved it every time. Surf Office has some great venues as part of their portfolio and do a great job helping to facilitate pretty much everything from accommodation, food, activities, airport transfers etc.
The most popular team building activities are surf lessons, SUP lessons and tapas night but there are plenty more to choose from.
