Del Mar Lifestyle

20 miles north of San Diego, Del mar is a picturesque town of understated elegance. It is a relaxed, coastal community with 2 miles of shoreline, nestled between Solana Beach and the expansive Torrey Preserve.

With its charming, small town atmosphere, Del Mar is perfect for locals and transplants who enjoy a quiet environment that’s still connected. This quaint community is filled with interesting architecture which characterizes the main plaza of its thriving downtown, as well as the various unique homes.

Originally created to be a first-class resort destination, Del Mar residents embrace its luxury yet relaxed lifestyle—an inherent feature of living by the beach.

Del Mar is a home to a tight-knit group of residents who take pride in their surroundings. The Del Mar Village Association hosts many events throughout the year within the town’s many parks and beaches.

Visitors and homeowners in the area enjoy days spent at beachfront Powerhouse Park, which features playgrounds and picnic areas. Dog Beach is a favourite for many residents as well. The local racetrack is a hotspot for thoroughbred races and doubles as a concert venue in the summer.

On a hill overlooking the ocean at the center of town is the Del Mar Plaza, the scenic location of some of Del Mar’s best shopping and dining, and the perfect vantage point to watch the sunset.

Directly opposite the Del Mar Plaza is the beautiful L’Auberge Resort, sometimes the location for an elegant ocean-view wedding, always a picturesque meeting place. With the irresistible charm of the village’s restaurants and boutiques, it is the perfect place to take a stroll.
