We've put together a list of
team-building activities for company retreats in
Jersey
, including options that work well for both small and large teams.
Framed by St Helier, St Aubin’s Bay, and Jersey’s rugged coastline, this Jersey retreat agenda combines focused team sessions with a coastal adventure and relaxed island evenings.
Jersey is ideal for teams looking for a coastal retreat with a quieter, more exclusive feel. The island combines beaches, countryside, and a slower pace, creating an environment that helps teams focus and reconnect.
Jersey Airport (JER) has direct flights from London and other UK cities, as well as some European connections. The airport is about 15–20 minutes from most parts of the island, making arrivals simple to manage.
May to September offers the best weather, with temperatures around 16–24°C and good conditions for outdoor activities. Spring and early autumn are slightly quieter, while winter is more suited to indoor-focused retreats.
St Helier is the most practical base, offering restaurants, hotels, and easy logistics. For a more relaxed setting, areas like St Brelade or Gorey provide coastal views and a quieter atmosphere.
Teams often organize coastal walks, kayaking, boat trips, cycling, and beach-based activities. Food experiences and visits to local farms or vineyards are also popular.
A 3 to 4 day retreat is common. This gives enough time for structured sessions, a few key activities, and time to enjoy the island without rushing.
Jersey offers a more coastal and relaxed experience compared to mainland UK locations. The island setting, combined with milder weather, creates a different atmosphere for team retreats.
Transport is usually recommended. While distances are short, teams often arrange minibuses or taxis to move between accommodation, activities, and different parts of the island.
Jersey is known for its seafood and local produce. Teams often enjoy fresh oysters, Jersey Royal potatoes, and group dinners in coastal restaurants.
Jersey works best for small to mid-sized teams. Larger groups can be accommodated, but may need to split across multiple properties.
Surf Office was amazing to work with - from the initial introductory call to the final day of our corporate retreat! They are well-organised, transparent, super reliable and the communication throughout the planning and execution phase was prompt and clear. We are looking forward to working with them for future company retreats.
I had the absolute pleasure of working with Elke and Álvaro to plan our onsite, and I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, they were incredibly friendly, responsive, and genuinely enthusiastic about helping us create a great event. Elke was so thoughtful and organized, always making sure every little detail was covered and keeping everything running smoothly. She brought such a positive energy to the process — she was super approachable and made collaboration easy and fun. Throughout the entire planning period, they both went above and beyond to support us. I really appreciated how proactive they were in anticipating our needs, and how enjoyable every interaction was. It truly felt like working with partners who cared as much about the success of our onsite as we did. Thank you, Elke and Álvaro, for being such a joy to work with! I’d happily work with you both again any time.
It's our second year working with Surf Office for our company offsite (30 pax first year, and 42 pax second year), and we're super happy! This year our offsite was a huge success, with direct impact on our employees' satisfaction, company culture, and alignment with our mission. The week they put together for us was perfect on all fronts: venue selection, logistics, activities, last-minute changes - everything was super well executed. Couldn't recommend them more! And... I know whom we're working with next year!
Working with Surf Office was a great experience from start to finish. Communication was smooth, the planning was thoughtful, and the platform made coordination easy. We really appreciated the well-curated suggestions for locations, activities, and restaurants – everything felt carefully considered. Beyond that, the setup created a great team atmosphere, making it easy to connect and enjoy our time together. We would definitely recommend Surf Office to any team looking for a well-organized and inspiring retreat.
Danielle, Giselle and the SurfOffice team were extremely cooperative, understanding and flexible to support my team’s 80-person offsite in Belgrade, Serbia. From being patient with our company’s lengthy vendor due diligence and procurement process, to responding swiftly when an attendee misplaced her passport - everything went really smoothly. Working with them took a huge load off our shoulders and their relationships with hotels/activities/venues also helped us secure good deals. Would definitely recommend their services to any company who’s looking to plan for an enjoyable team offsite.
We recently organized our company offsite with SurfOffice, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning: The location selection and contract negotiations with Giselle, to the actual planning and execution of the offsite together with Elke, everything was handled exceptionally well. Working with Elke was truly outstanding. She was incredibly proactive, always thinking several steps ahead, and responded extremely quickly to every question or change. She managed to get fast answers from all providers: from transport companies to hotels and local activity partners- and did so with a consistently friendly and professional attitude. Thanks to her dedication, we had little organizational workload on our side, and we always felt fully supported. The offsite turned out to be an amazing experience for our whole team, and we’re certain we couldn’t have organized something like this on our own. SurfOffice played a huge role in making our offsite in Kemer such a success, and we can wholeheartedly recommend them to any company planning an offsite for a larger group.
Sara was fantastic in organising our company trip to Istanbul - she was quick to reply, offered great solutions to issues, and made the trip itself seamless and enjoyable. Already looking forward to the next one!
Expertise and competence in service. Friendly, helpful, and respectful communication. Comfortable, welcoming, and inspiring surroundings.
This was our second year working with Surf to plan our annual company retreat, and once again, they smashed it. We had a beautiful, restorative and fun retreat just outside of Barcelona that the whole team loved. It was so lovely to have the team's support in planning such a complex event, and they did a great job at helping us stay within budget. Great experience overall.
The most popular team building activities are surf lessons, SUP lessons and tapas night but there are plenty more to choose from.
