Del Mar California is an upscale ocean-side community just north of San Diego. We who live here think of San Diego as paradise, but the beach town area along the coast - what we locals refer to as "North County" - is even "one level up" in paradise.
This North County San Diego heaven is a community of petite beach towns - Solana Beach, Encinitas, Cardiff-By-The-Sea, Carlsbad and Del Mar - all with refreshing ocean breezes. Our little beach towns sport delightful hotels, resorts and inns, incredible restaurants and stunning beaches.
Del Mar has a long history of celebrities, in a large part because of its world-class 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 hotels in Del Mar and many Del Mar inns and resorts were established during this time.
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 L'Auberge Del Mar, a fashionable San Diego resort that "Celebrates the extraordinary relationship we all have with the harmony and relaxation of the Pacific Ocean."
Ranked among the best luxury resorts in the country by Conde Nast, L'Auberge Del Mar 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. We locals call it the Del Mar Fair - in fact, nobody I know every call it the San Diego County Fair. The location is perfect -- just a few blocks from the cooling breezes from the Pacific Ocean on hot summer days. If you're coming to the fair, be sure to check your reservations well in advance at any of the Del Mar Ca Hotels or Del Mar Inns.
There are many Del Mar bed and breakfasts, Del Mar Inns and Del Mar hotels, but the one that I find is the most intimate, quaint and near the beach and ocean for under $165 a night is the Del Mar Bed and Breakfast.
Del Mar California is one of few locations in the world where the Torrey Pine grows. The Torrey Pine is the one of the rarest pine trees in the United States - the Monterey cypress is rarer, but it's not technically a pine tree. The Torrey pines along the sea cliffs of Del Mar endure persistent drought and grow in hard sand which can hardly be called "soil". They are blasted by storms, soaked in salt spay and cooked in the sun, but they live stubbornly on.
