Del Mar

Stunning beaches, tons of activities, and a mix of beautiful homes.

Welcome to Del Mar

Del Mar might be small, covering just two square miles, but it's a gem of a coastal town only 20 minutes from San Diego. With its stunning beaches, tons of activities, and a mix of beautiful homes, it’s no wonder this spot is a coveted coastal hideaway.
 
Del Mar’s Hollywood history runs deep, with stars like Jimmy Durante, Bing Crosby, Desi Arnaz, and Lucille Ball once calling it home. Summers here are packed with events, thanks to the Del Mar Fairgrounds. You’ve got the Del Mar Races from late July to early September and again from November to December, plus the San Diego County Fair which is the oldest in San Diego and draws over 1.4 million visitors each year. The charming Del Mar Village and Plaza are a shopper's paradise, filled with high-end boutiques, cafes with ocean views, and beachy hotels. Come September, the Taste of Del Mar takes over, offering local art, food, live music, and a free art walk.
 
Right in the heart of Del Mar, the L’Auberge Hotel & Spa sprawls across five acres overlooking the beach, with luxurious spa amenities just steps from the sand, shops, and restaurants. Not far away, the Fairmont Grand Hotel Del Mar offers the ultimate in luxury, featuring an exclusive 18-hole golf course, a spa, and Southern California’s only Five Star and Five Diamond restaurant.
 
And of course, Del Mar is all about the beaches. No matter where you live, the ocean is just minutes away. Dog lovers flock to the River Mouth (Dog Beach), while many consider north Del Mar City Beach to be one of San Diego’s best. If you prefer a quieter, more spacious beach experience, south Del Mar City Beach is a favorite among joggers and walkers. The town also boasts several parks, like Seagrove and Powerhouse Park, perfect for concerts and dog-friendly hangouts. Just two miles south, Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve offers thousands of acres of pristine nature, stunning ocean views, and those iconic cliffside landscapes that make the area so special.
 
Local Tip: Spend a day at the beach with man’s best friend at Dog Beach which also features sand volleyball courts so everyone can have some fun! Or grab a drink while enjoying some of the best views in San Diego at Monarch Beach Pub.
