Bold colors, high-contrast displays and size options let you show the world that you do things your own way.
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®

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 camera2. 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.
MULTI-GNSS SUPPORT
Whether you’re hiking, mountain biking, trail running or skiing, you’ll 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.

SMART NOTIFICATIONS
Receive emails, texts and alerts right on your watch when paired with your compatible smartphone.

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 you’ll 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
