Del Mar California - Six Fun Things To Do While Visiting

By Terry Hunefeld


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.

San Diego county is located at the border of Mexico. The weather is always warm and sunny. Along the coast are small, quaint beach towns. Del Mar is one of them, blessed with cooling ocean breezes and lovely beach hotels. Towns like Encinitas and Carlsbad offer attractions like Quail Botanical Gardens and Legoland. They all have absolutely gorgeous beaches.

Del Mar has a very long record of celebrities living and playing here due to the Del Mar horse racing track built under the guidance and inspiration of Jimmy Durante and Bing Crosby nearly 70 years ago. Their Hollywood star-power put the Del Mar Horse Race Track on the map as one of the most ritzy and prominent associations in the racing world. The Del Mar horse track brought a steady steam of well-known Los Angeles and New York celebrities to the Del Mar hotels and motels, and dozens of Del Mar inns and resorts prospered as a result.

Del Mar lodging accommodations and Del Mar resorts are breathtaking, although they tend to be quite pricey. One of the most exclusive Del Mar hotels is near the beach: it's the famous Aviara Four Seasons Resort in nearby Encinitas.

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 San Diego County Fair comes to the Del Mar Fairgrounds each summer. Locals call it the Del Mar Fair - in fact, nobody calls it the San Diego County Fair. The location is just perfect as it's only a few blocks from the cooling breezes of the Pacific Ocean on those hot summer days. If you plan to visit the fair, be sure to make reservations at a hotel in Del Mar.

There are many Del Mar bed and breakfasts, Del Mar Inns and Del Mar hotels, but the best values are fount at the Inn At Moonlight Beach. This boutique inn is intimate, quaint and near the beach; rates are under $165 a night. Visit this link for more information: Del Mar Bed and Breakfast.

Del Mar has two seaside parks - Seagrove and Powerhouse - both great for picnicking and stunning ocean views. Often referred to as "Malibu South," Del Mar hotels are second to none, especially the luxury beach hotels. Visitors love the trendy cafes and Italian restaurants located along Old Coast Highway 101.
