With stunning views from historic Coast Highway 101, wildlife reserves, sandy beaches, dramatic cliffs and coastal bluffs, picture-perfect oceanfront parks and plenty of shopping and dining, Del Mar is considered among the finest communities in San Diego. There's a quaint yet upscale charm to this seaside village in San Diego's North Coastal region that seems the perfect complement to Del Mar's two miles of beautiful coastline. The area offers both family- and dog-friendly beaches where you can kick-off your flip-flops, pack a picnic from the local shops and do some serious relaxing. To help you explore even more of this seaside village, each of the lifeguard stations along Del Mar Beach features a map of Del Mar Village highlighting restaurants, shopping, services and more!
Del Mar is also known for a popular activity beyond the beach, "where the surf meets the turf." The Del Mar Thoroughbred Club is woven into the fabric of San Diego history, hosting the finest horse racing every year since 1937, when Bing Crosby welcomed the track's first guests. The beautiful facility is located at the Del Mar Fairgrounds, home to yet another popular summer tradition, the San Diego County Fair.
On the south end of Del Mar Village, there is easy, free parking at the Del Mar Civic Center, located at 1050 Camino Del Mar. On the north end, there is paid parking in the Del Mar Plaza. If you can’t find a free spot on a side street, metered parking is also available throughout the village, as well as a paid lot across the street from the Powerhouse Community Center, park and beach.
