All about Del Mar
The Californian beach town of Del Mar, located less than half an hour north of San Diego, is a popular stop on the world-famous Highway 101. The downtown area consists of an eclectic mix of architecture styles, including whitewashed buildings, beach cottages, and half-timber Tudor-style structures with a European feel. The town has been a popular vacation spot since the early days of Hollywood, when film stars would flock to Del Mar’s expansive beach and saunter down its streets under the swaying palms.
Del Mar is renowned for mouth-wateringly fresh seafood, hip cocktail bars, and luxury shopping, and the shoreline is blanketed with million-dollar mansions. Del Mar Beach is a sweeping stretch of soft sand, which gives way to the glittering cerulean waters of the Pacific Ocean, where surfers come to catch waves in the Californian sun.
What are the top things to do in Del Mar?
Del Mar Beach
This pristine two-mile-long beach is popular with sun-worshippers all year round. Surfers line the shore in the winter when the waves are at their highest, while summer brings gentler surf and more a relaxing environment for swimming and paddling. There are also two tranquil oceanfront parks, which offer a scenic setting for a coastal picnic.
Torrey Pines Natural State Reserve
Less than 10 minutes south of Del Mar, this rugged landscape is made up of nearly 2,000 acres of protected state reserve. This is one of the most untamed sections of southern California, with hiking paths passing through untouched natural environments before reaching soaring cliffs offering sweeping views out across the Pacific Ocean. Look out for humpback whales down below, as well as flowering cacti and coyotes.
Del Mar Farmers Market
Sitting just a street from the beach on Camino Del Mar, Del Mar Farmers Market showcases locally grown produce. The stalls have handcrafted artwork, heirloom tomatoes, honey, fragrant herbs, and other locally-created items. Locals pick up seasonal fruit and handmade cheeses for impromptu al fresco dinners by the waves.
