ENGINEERED FOR ENDURANCE
This rugged watch is water-rated to 100 meters and is thermal and shock resistant. Plus, with a fiber-reinforced polymer case and chemically strengthened scratch-resistant lens, this device is built to endure.
DESIGNED TO DO YOU
Bold colors, high-contrast displays and size options let you show the world that you do things your own way.
Have more fun on the water.
TIDE DATA
Stay up to date on ocean conditions so you can catch the perfect wave. Just pair the watch with your compatible smartphone.
SURF ACTIVITY
Record the number of waves surfed, maximum speed reached and distance traveled by using the surf activity profile.
SURFLINE
See conditions such as tide, wave height, wind and surf rating for each of the five nearest surf spots, when paired with the Garmin Connect app on your compatible smartphone.
SURFLINE SESSIONS FEATURE
The Instinct 2 Surf Edition Smartwatch works with Surfline Sessions, which creates videos of every wave you ride in front of your Surfline camera. So you can watch them later and see how you did with your Surfline Sessions subscription.
WINDSURFING ACTIVITY
Use this activity profile to track your GPS position, speed, distance and heart rate while windsurfing.
KITEBOARDING ACTIVITY
On top of tracking your GPS position, speed, distance and heart rate while kiteboarding, this profile measures your elevation, so you can see jumps on a chart during and after the activity.
Track every adventure.
MULTI-GNSS SUPPORT
Whether youre hiking, mountain biking, trail running or skiing, youll have access to multiple global navigation satellite systems (GPS, GLONASS and Galileo) to track in more challenging environments than GPS alone.
ABC SENSORS
Navigate your next trail with ABC sensors, including an altimeter for elevation data, barometer to monitor weather and 3-axis electronic compass.
TRACBACK ROUTING
Take the guesswork out of your return journey by using this feature to navigate the same route back to your starting point.
REFERENCE POINT
Keep track of a known place such as your car or the trailhead relative to your location, and easily find your way back to it.
Live connected.
SMART NOTIFICATIONS
Receive emails, texts and alerts right on your watch when paired with your compatible smartphone.
CONNECT IQ STORE
Download custom watch faces, add data fields, and get apps and widgets from the Connect IQ Store app on your compatible smartphone.
SAFETY AND TRACKING FEATURES
When your watch and phone are paired, your live location can be sent to your contacts manually or during select outdoor activities automatically with built-in incident detection.
Train your way.
BUILT-IN SPORTS APPS
Do whatever you love with preloaded activity profiles for running, cycling, swimming, strength training, indoor climbing, virtual running, golf, yoga and more.
HIIT WORKOUTS
This activity profile tracks your HIIT workouts, including AMRAP, EMOM, Tabata and custom. Set the number of rounds, work/rest intervals and more.
VO2 MAX
Train smarter with VO2 max, an indicator of how you can expect to perform. It even accounts for changes in performance that could be caused by heat or altitude.
DAILY WORKOUT SUGGESTIONS
View your entire week of daily suggested workouts, which adapt after every run or ride to match your performance and recovery as well as the races coming up in your Garmin Connect smartphone app calendar.
RECOVERY TIME
After each workout, recovery time lets you know when youll be ready for another hard workout. It even accounts for training intensity and factors such as stress, daily activity and sleep.
BACKCOUNTRY SKIING AND SNOWBOARDING
These activity profiles now automatically distinguish between descending and climbing. So you can hit start on your first run and leave your smartwatch tracking all day long.
MTB DYNAMICS
Track the details of every ride with mountain biking metrics plus specialized Grit and Flow measurements that rate trail difficulty and how smoothly you descend, giving you a score to beat next time.
WRIST-BASED RUNNING POWER
See how much power youre applying to the trail or the road so you can manage your effort and fine-tune your training. No accessory required.
Know your body.
WRIST-BASED HEART RATE
Get estimated heart rate data along with alerts if your heart rate stays too high or too low while youre at rest. Gauge how hard your heart is working during activities.
STRESS TRACKING
Heart rate variability is used to calculate your stress level score, so you can see if youre having a calm, balanced or stressful day.
SLEEP SCORE AND ADVANCED SLEEP MONITORING
Get a full breakdown of your light, deep and REM sleep stages. View it all on a dedicated widget that includes your sleep score and insights.
BODY BATTERY ENERGY MONITORING
Optimize your bodys energy reserves, using heart rate variability, stress, sleep and other data to gauge when youre ready to be active or when you may need to rest.
PULSE OX
For altitude acclimation or sleep monitoring, a Pulse Ox sensor5 uses light beams at your wrist to estimate how well your body is absorbing oxygen.
FITNESS AGE
This feature uses chronological age, your weekly vigorous activity, resting heart rate and BMI to estimate if your body is younger or older than you are. Get tips to lower your fitness age.
INTENSITY MINUTES
Track how many minutes of vigorous activity youre getting, when you earn them and during what activity. You can even view them as a data field during timed activities.
WOMENS HEALTH TRACKING
Use the Garmin Connect app to track your menstrual cycle or pregnancy. Log symptoms, get exercise and nutrition education, and more.
