Our Island Pursuit Stores

We love being out on the water, close to the surf, and under the sun. That’s why we founded our Island Pursuit stores in historic resort towns up and down the East Coast.

Life On the Shore

Our founder, Michael Valentino, opened the first Island Pursuit in 1983 as a complement to his ski-focused store, Northern Pursuit. Establishing the first Island Pursuit on Martha’s Vineyard, Michael sought his dream of an endless summer, eventually leading him to iconic locations along the coast in Florida, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts.
