Del Mar, California - Information & Properties for Sale

Del Mar is a coastal oasis with a unique "village" atmosphere, where small streets wind up and down the coastal hills and most homes have ocean views or are just a short walk to the best beaches in San Diego County. The beaches here are flat sandy beaches with turquoise water and real estate options consist of coastal cottages, beachfront estates, condominiums and townhouses, and luxury homes.

This upscale community is located on the ocean just a half-hour drive up Interstate 5 from Downtown San Diego. Del Mar has it's own train stop which eventually lets you catch the trolley towards Downtown San Diego. About 4,600 Del Mar residents enjoy the amenities of a small-town without forfeiting any of the big-city opportunities. San Diego’s Gaslamp District, Convention Center, Baseball Stadium (Petco Park), San Diego Zoo, SeaWorld, Old Globe Theatre and the Symphony are all situated around San Diego Harbor and Mission Bay.

Since the 1920s, when film stars made Del Mar a playtime destination, it has grown into one of the most beautiful resort communities on the West Coast. Recreational opportunities abound with the beautiful beaches, excellent surfing and swimming, shopping at unique boutiques, or hiking and jogging at the world famous Torrey Pines Preserve.

Private and resort golf courses include the Del Mar Country Club, Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club, Fairbanks Ranch Country Club, The Bridges Golf & Country Club and The La Costa Golf and Tennis Resort. You will find that Del Mar is in the heart of “golfers paradise,” yet Del Mar also encompasses expansive beaches, the Del Mar Race Track and Fair Grounds, art festivals, hot air ballooning and ocean view dining at great restaurants along with many cultural offerings. The Polo fields are a popular spot during the season just behind Del Mar in Rancho Santa Fe.
