Serving the Gulf Coast’s boarding needs for over 50 years!!!
With three stores strategically located from Pensacola to Destin, FL, Innerlight provides unparalleled support to the Gulf Coast’s boarding and beach-going communities.

By 1972, the shop was renamed Innerlight, and it has continued to flourish ever since.
Yancy co-owned Innerlight with his brother JB Schluter, creating a family legacy that remains strong to this day.
