Grab a cheap Garmin inReach device for Black Friday and be prepared for outdoor emergencies

Garmin InReach device and smartphone.

Amazon has slashed the price of Garmin inReach devices for Black Friday, with the inReach Messenger now on sale for $249.98, and the Garmin inReach Mini 2 available for only $299.99. You can also pick up the inReach Mini 2 as part of a bundle with an extra power bank for only $10 more.

We're big fans of Garmin inReach devices at Advnture, and although they're not essential (and other satellite communicators are available) they can be a game-changer if you're somewhere without phone signal and need help, or just want to touch base and let your family know you're OK. 

If you're not in the US, scroll down to the bottom of this article for today's best Garmin inReach deals near you, with prices updated daily. Looking for something else? Take a look at our roundup of the best Black Friday Garmin deals, including satellite navigators, watches, and cycling tech.

In order to use a Garmin inReach communicator, you'll also need an inReach subscription. There are various tiers available, including ones lasting just a month for one-off trips, and annual subscriptions if you're a regular adventurer. The 'safety' plan is the most affordable, allowing you to send 10 text messages and unlimited SOS and check-in messages. If you want to send more texts, the 'recreation' plan might be the one for you.
