Del Mar
Del Mar is an upscale beach town in San Diego, CA. Located just north of La Jolla and the Torrey Pines State Reserve, Del Mar is Spanish for “by the sea.” Known for its beautiful expansive beaches, quaint village, boutique shopping, fine dining, luxurious houses, and beachfront condos, Del Mar is a popular and desirable place to call home. The Del Mar beaches are vast and pristine, including the family-friendly 15th Street beach and nearby Dog Beach.
In July, the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club takes over the fairgrounds for racing season. The club and the race track were started by Bing Crosby and his friends in the 30s. The racing season runs until just past Labor Day and attracts top horses and fans. Opening day is a sea of colorful ladies hats attended by everyone in San Diego who can get the afternoon off.
The city is bounded on the south by the Torrey Pines State Reserve. Here visitors find 2,000 acres of San Diego County preserved to look like it did before San Diego was developed. Rare Torrey Pine trees, miles of beaches and a lagoon for migrating birds are the major attractions.
