Warmer weather is coming soon, so you’ll want to get prepared now. Speaqua’s The Barnacle speaker is a great way to do it. Fully waterproof with an IP68 rating, if this speaker falls overboard, it can float, and ingress protection keeps the electronic components inside dry as a bone. With an included microphone and caller ID, you can use the Barnacle for hands-free communication, and the ability to store up to 1,000 songs means you don’t need to bring your phone with to play your favorite tunes.

Unlike most other electronics in REI’s End of Season sale, the Barnacle is eligible for the extra 25% off as it is on clearance. That means you can pick up this speaker for just $34, $31 off its regular $65 retail price.
