Is there a way to connect an external mic to a GoPro 6 to get some decent audio from this camera?

There are a lot of them offered on Amazon. Maybe go there for the reviews?
The NYC stores will have them as well, of course.

Why so serious?

But there are no ports on a GoPro?  I don't see how this could work?

Yep, just checked again, there are no ways to plug in any exterior mic to this.

Man, I thought you could do something with external bluetooth mic, apparently not.  Looks like you are out of luck here.

The Pro Mic adapter is not worthy for an waterproof action cam. It's also big and bulky. It's time that GoPro finally awakens the long sought after feature of implementing a wireless bluetooth mic option. They can then even make more money by selling a wireless Gopro mic. Or two. One waterproof and one regular for HQ audio. Or perhaps re-enginner the REMO unit with an built in mic system.
