'Carapace' is the perfect Old Florida beachfront cottage with white sandy beach right on the gorgeous blue-green waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
Carapace offers expansive beachfront gulf views from living room, dining room, kitchen, master bedroom and sun deck. Great place to enjoy unspoiled beaches and gulf breezes. Take a short stroll down the uncrowded beach or sit at water's edge. It's 'Old Florida' the way it should be - a beautiful natural setting unblemished by crowds and high-rise development. Just take a deep breath and reeelaaax.
The natural environment here supports many plant and animal species you will enjoy seeing - blue,fiddler, and hermit crabs; many fish, dolphins, sea turtles, tarpon, manatee, eagles, osprey, and many other sea birds-snowy plovers, least terns. Eco-tours are available on the island for guided sight-seeing, if you like. Or you can strike out on your own for a private adventure.
Watch beautiful sunrises and sunsets from the deck. As darkness falls, you are treated to a magnificent display of starry constellations without the distraction of bright city lights. Many nights you can see the lights from local shrimp boats on the horizon.
To support a sustainable healthy environment we participate in 'eco-lodging' practices at Carapace.
Great floor plan: Open living area and master bedroom open to beachside sun deck, covered parking, hot-and-cold outdoor shower, large picnic table and park style charcoal grill for family cookouts.
