Published this month
Winter might be knocking on the door, but before we know it, the end-of-year will be here. Beat the rush and give your team something to look forward to by planning your Waiheke Christmas party now. If you're searching for the best group activities in Auckland to make this year’s celebration unforgettable, Waiheke Island ticks every box. Ditch the ordinary, escape the city, and treat your team to a Christmas event that combines stunning views, adventure, food, wine, and serious fun.
Here are 5 group activity ideas guaranteed to make your Auckland Christmas party one to remember:
-
See Waiheke Differently: The Great Escape Island or Beach Challenge What better way to bond and laugh with your team than an outdoor adventure challenge? The Great Escape Island Challenge is a fun, competitive experience that showcases Waiheke's hidden gems and scenic highlights. Short on time or budget? Opt for the Beach Challenge instead – a shorter version with all the fun, held on one of Waiheke’s beautiful beaches. Both include a hilarious slideshow and prizegiving to wrap up the day.
-
Hit the Mark: Archery & Team Challenges Amongst the Vines Combine the focus of archery with engaging team challenges in the stunning surroundings of a Waiheke vineyard. The Waiheke Round Robin activity is mobile and can be set up at venues like Mudbrick, Te Motu, Casita Miro, or Stonyridge — making it easy to pair with wine tasting or a long lunch.
-
Let the Good Times Roll: Lawn Bowls Challenge Looking for something relaxed but super fun? A Lawn Bowls challenge is ideal for all ages and skill levels. Dress in whites, enjoy some friendly competition, and toast the season at the local club. It's classic Kiwi Christmas fun.
-
Ultimate Beach Party: Waiheke Games, Food & Fun Want laid-back fun in the sun? Create a bespoke beach day complete with lawn games, watersports, and catering. Add paddleboards, Jet Skis, sandcastle competitions, or just beach cricket and a gourmet picnic. We handle all the logistics.
-
Vineyard Adventures via E-Bikes: Cruise the island with a guided e-bike tour, stopping at vineyards, olive groves, gin distilleries, or art studios. It’s the perfect blend of light activity, local flavour, and group bonding.
