Del Mar Holiday Packages

Holidays To Del Mar

The coast of Southern California sure does shine. We’re not just talking about the gleam from a certain star-studded city either.

In northern San Diego County, the small seaside town of Del Mar boasts an extra coat of polish—from the hilltop mansions to the sunshine reflecting off the high tide.

Spend your holiday in Del Mar lounging on the sand or test your putting skills on the golf course. Located just 32 km north of downtown San Diego, Del Mar is a short drive from the big city. So book some sweet Del Mar package deals and catch the next flight to the “Golden State”.

Things to Do in Del Mar

Del Mar may not seem like the stomping grounds for floppy-haired surfers, but this is SoCal and the local wave breaks are huge, so rent a longboard and head to one of the many surf schools near Del Mar City Beach for a lesson. If you prefer to lie horizontal in the sunshine, that’s cool too. Lay your towel on the “swimming” side of the beach or head to greener pastures at Powerhouse Park—a grassy and sandy outdoor event area right on the water. You might even catch a local concert—the cherry on top of any Del Mar holiday!

Wanna join the glitz and glamour? Pick up one of Wotif’s Del Mar car hire options and drive inland to spend the morning golfing the back nine at a country club, or play the ponies at Del Mar Racetrack. The racetrack is just north of the Del Mar Fairgrounds, home of the San Diego County fair every summer.

Shopping, Dining & Nightlife

Before you travel, save on Del Mar packages, because they sure know how to spend here. For a one-stop shop of designer goods, Del Mar Plaza should lead your itinerary. Located downtown, the Plaza features high-end designer shops and restaurants for when you’re feeling peckish. Del Mar is a shopper’s playground, so wander down the side streets to fill your bags with finds from local businesses.

Del Mar is constantly on Southern California’s must-eat lists—partly because many of the restaurants have earned 5-star ratings and boast world-class chefs and partly because of the amazing ocean views. Wowza! California cuisine usually involves a little international fusion and lots of fresh flavours. To sample the region’s speciality, stuff your face with fish tacos—a San Diego classic. You’re welcome.

Speaking of San Diego, the city to the south does nightlife at a different pace than the quieter, more conservative Del Mar. In Del Mar, you’ll sidle up to swanky poolside bars and find a few tavern lounges along Camino del Mar. But if you’re looking for neighbourhoods that never sleep, check out San Diego’s Pacific Beach, with several streets lined with a good time waiting to happen. Book San Diego holiday packages now to prepare for some late nights.
