About the host
Hosted by Norman Delage
As much as I love my home state of Maine, after half a lifetime of freezing temps and snow (lots and lots of snow!), my wife and I decided to invest in a tropical getaway to call our own. The Coral Shell is it! We hope you will enjoy your stay at the Coral Shell as much as we enjoy owning the house.
What makes this property unique
The entire neighborhood is a protected wildlife zone and visitors can expect to see a variety of birds around the neighborhood including Great Egrets, Great Blue Herons, Black Crowned Night Herons, Anhingas, Glossy Ibis, Common Gallinules, and Snowy Egrets. The nearby Venice Area Audubon Rookery is an especially nice place to visit at dusk, when a variety of large birds arrive to roost for the night. Bring your camera!
