How much time and money should you invest in a recreational event?

How do you ensure that the refreshment is suitable for all team members?

Organising an inclusive recreation event requires taking into account different personalities, physical limitations and interests. Planning a varied programme ensures that everyone finds something they like to do. At SunLines, we believe that a successful recreational event offers freedom of choice and takes into account different needs. For events on the M/S Emma, we can tailor a programme to suit your team, whether it's an active team day, a more festive occasion or a casual get-together.

When is the best time to organise a team recreation event?

The timing of a recreational event has a major impact on its success. The optimal timing takes into account work project schedules, team workload and seasons. Summer and early autumn are popular times for maritime recreation in Helsinki, but spring also offers great experiences in the archipelago. Consider these factors when planning your timing:

• Work project schedules - avoid busy deadlines and peak seasons
• Team energy level - for example, at the end of a challenging project
• Weather conditions and season - the maritime experience is different in different seasons
• Distance to other company events - evenly spread over the year
• Participants' personal schedules - take into account holiday seasons

SunLines' biler cruises offer experiential recreational activities throughout the sailing season. The most popular departure time for cruises is 18:00, which is convenient after most working days. Please remember that the most popular times fill up quickly, so it is advisable to book well in advance, especially if you are planning a recreational event for a large group.
