Helsinki's maritime environment and diverse facilities make the city an ideal place for a day of recreation. Companies are constantly looking for impressive and memorable experiences that strengthen team spirit and provide an opportunity to break away from the work routine. A Maritime Recreation Day on the M/S Emma provides a unique environment where the work team can enjoy the beauty of the Helsinki archipelago, delicious food and good vibes. Let's take a closer look at the recreational opportunities Helsinki has to offer, and in particular why a maritime experience is an excellent choice for a company team day.
What activities can you do on a day out in Helsinki?
Finland's capital offers a wide range of refreshing experiences for companies and groups. Maritime Helsinki is known for its archipelago, which provides a unique setting for a day of recreation. SunLines organises memorable cruises that are perfect for corporate retreats. In addition to maritime experiences, Helsinki offers cultural activities such as museum and art tours, as well as sporting options for groups. The city also offers a variety of dining options for different occasions. However, activities by the sea offer a unique opportunity to get away from it all and experience something special. Corporate days out on the M/S Emma offer an easy solution, combining stunning scenery, delicious food, drinks and professional service. After an active day, it's nice to relax amidst the archipelago scenery, enjoying good company and atmospheric music.Why is a sea recreation day a popular choice in Helsinki?
Helsinki is inherently maritime city, whose unique archipelago provides a stunning setting for corporate retreats. The marine environment provides a natural break from the work routine and helps employees to break away from their normal routines, which is the key objective of a day out. SunLines' boat trips and island tours are an ideal option for companies who want to offer their staff something out of the ordinary. The M/S Emma is specially designed for groups of 50-200 people, making it the perfect choice for companies of all sizes. The ship has everything you need to organise a successful event. The maritime environment also has a positive effect on team spirit. A shared experience on the open sea, amidst beautiful archipelago scenery, promotes discussion and team spirit between employees in a way that is not possible in traditional meeting rooms. The fresh sea breeze and varied landscape stimulate the senses and make the experience memorable.How can SunLines organise a successful day out in Helsinki?
Organising a successful recreation day requires careful planning and professional implementation. At SunLines, the process starts with an inventory of the customer's needs and wishes. Each event is designed individually, taking into account the size of the group, budget and specific requirements. Our tailor-made packages include everything you need: cruise, meals and drinks. Our cruise includes a 4-hour cruise combined with a delicious Taco fiesta buffet. A DJ will provide the right music to keep you entertained throughout the cruise. Our professional staff will take care of all the practical arrangements, so that the organiser of the day can concentrate on enjoying the occasion with his colleagues. Our flexible service also allows for changes in plans if circumstances or needs change.When is the best time to organise a day out in Helsinki?
The timing of a recreation day is an important factor in its success. Seasonal variation in Helsinki offers a variety of opportunities all year round, but for marine activities, the summer season from May to September is naturally the most popular time. In our experience, weekday evenings often work best for a day out, as they don't break up the working week in the middle. Our cruises usually depart at 18:00 at the latest, which makes it easy to relax after the working day. The objective of the day also influences the timing. If the purpose is to reward the team for a good performance, the time can be after the project has finished. If, on the other hand, you want to strengthen team spirit before the busy season, a recreation day should be organised well in advance. We recommend booking well in advance, especially during popular high season periods such as summer Fridays. This will ensure that you get the day and time you want. Special departures, such as May Day cruises, are very popular and fill up quickly.How much does it cost to organise a recreation day in Helsinki?
The cost of a day out depends on many factors, such as the number of participants, the duration of the event and the services selected. Private cruises on the M/S Emma, ideal for groups of 50-200 people, start from €2400. Please note that the minimum number of participants for all events is 50. When drawing up your budget, it is a good idea to take at least the following elements into account:- Transport to the venue
- Meals and beverages
- Duration and date of the cruise
- Possible additional services
