Del Mar is a lovely upscale beach town in Southern California just north of San Diego. Del Mar is Spanish for "by the sea." Del Mar is located along the Pacific Ocean and was founded in the nineteenth century as a seaside resort for the rich and famous.
For good reason, Del Mar is the most popular beach community in San Diego. Great beaches, world-class Del Mar hotels, seaside fairgrounds, famous horseracing and a lovely downtown village provide lots of activities for everyone. Powerhouse Park even has a big children's playground and is especially great for families with young kids. Beachgoers can also find delicious inexpensive eats at Roberto's taco stand on Carmel Valley Road, overlooking the beautiful Los Penasquitos Lagoon.
Del Mar has a long history of the rich and famous because of a famous horse racing track built in the 1930's under the direction and patronage of Bing Crosby and Jimmy Durante. Their celebrity status made the Del Mar Race Track Thoroughbred Club one of the most beautiful and prestigious organizations in the racing world. The race track brought a steady steam of celebrities to the Del Mar beach hotels and many Del Mar inns and resorts were established during this time.
Del Mar beach hotels and lodging accommodations are wonderful, albeit expensive. One of the most romantic Del Mar hotels is located near the shores of the Pacific Ocean: the timeless L'Auberge Del Mar, a time-honored California coastal resort that, as they say, "Celebrates the special connection we all have with the tranquility, comfort and relaxation of the sea."
Ranked among the best luxury resorts in the country by Conde Nast, L'Auberge, Del Mar beach hotel brings together panoramic coastal views, casual elegance and personalized service to create an outstanding romantic weekend getaway at a Del Mar resort.
The age-old San Diego County Fair has been held at the Del Mar Fairgrounds every summer. Locals refer to it as the Del Mar Fair - no one ever calls it the San Diego County Fair. The fair's location is perfect because it is only several blocks from the refreshingly cooling breezes from the Pacific Ocean on the first hot days of summer. If you decide to visit the fair, make sure you get reservations for accommodation before hand from any of the Del Mar inns or Del Mar hotels.
Of all the Del Mar bed and breakfasts and Del Mar hotels, the only one that is quaint, romantic and close to the beach for under $200 a night is Ann Dunham's Del Mar Bed and Breakfast.
Del Mar San Diego Ca is one of two locations in the world where the endangered Torrey Pine grows. As you may know, the Torrey Pine tree is the one of the rarest pines in the world. Torrey pine trees grow along the sea cliffs beneath Del Mar hotels and resorts and endure constant drought. Torrey Pines grow in hard packed sandstone and are constantly battered by storms and baked in the sun.
