Team Building
Take your team Social Sailing
Team building with Social Sailing
The purpose of team building and a team event is to strengthen bonds between people. Our concept, Social Sailing, helps you along the way while we explore the harbor. We do this by making you an active part of the journey and asking you (perhaps surprising) questions that encourage us to share experiences.
Example of what we do
Step 1: Intro
Intro round. Your captain will share something about herself and guests share something about themselves.
Step 2: Tour
We explore the harbor in a dialogue format. Captain and guests all chip in a common talk as we explore new or old areas of the harbor.
After doing thousands of tours we believe Social Sailing can help build stronger teams.
Try our “Hidden gems”
Hidden gems is about showing our own favorite spots, which are off the beaten track from the standard path. Expect to get an introduction to areas we think are cool, local, and where you get a great a sense of what the life in Copenhagen is all about. We will either take a southern route or Northern route depending on what is going on in the harbor at your specific departure day. There will be a voluntarily option during the route to stop and get out of the boat to explore.
The harbor in Copenhagen is undergoing rapid change, from an industrial harbor to recreational space open to everyone living in the city. During the summer months it acts as the main nerve binding the city together and attracting numerous water-based activities in the process. You will see how this is folds out with Kayaks passing by and happy Danes jumping into the water. We will point out our favorite places and hidden gems, whether you are looking a place for having an afternoon beer in the sun, a relaxed morning coffee, or simply and area to relax away from it all.
As we explore the upcoming areas away from the inner part of the city you will see how former industrial buildings are being transformed into new spaces, where new and old are mixed in new architectural structures. Some of these are designed by famous architects like Bjarke Ingels and some by new upcoming talents. You will get an understanding of how design and living play and essential role for the new development of Copenhagen and an essential part of the Danish lifestyle.

Working remote - need for strengthening social ties
Increasingly, we live through our screens, work more from home, and have fewer physical interactions with our colleagues. Social Sailing provides a counterbalance to this trend since research indicates that physical interactions and relationships are crucial for improving team performance.
Build Client Relationships with Social Sailing
Successful client relationships are based on a personal connection. Let a Hey Captain social sailing tour be part of facilitating this.

Hey Captain is a canal tour in Copenhagen founded by Casper and Joel, who sailed friends around in their own boat Diana. The original feeling was based on being personal, social and informative, which remain the anchor point for the boat tours we do at Hey Captain.
Expect to experience a homelike atmosphere where you can sit back and relax as we take you through our favorite canals in Copenhagen. In a relaxed pace you will get a sense of the city more than an overload of historical figures.
