1-35 of 71 Attractions in Del Mar
Where the surf meets the turf, as Bing Crosby famously sang, stands the exquisite city of Del Mar. Because the wealthy seaside village is limited in size, it retains a coveted small-town feel—except when summer comes. Then it flourishes with visitors from its great southerly neighbor, San Diego, along with others from all across the country, flocking by the thousands to the racetrack at the illustrious Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. Del Mar also hosts the San Diego County Fair on its giant fairgrounds, an event the scope of a Disney amusement park. However, Del Mar offers much quieter attractions as well, like lovely beaches, excellent dining, and a standard of living only rivaled by its neighbors, La Jolla and Rancho Santa Fe.
