Del Mar City Beach

Del Mar City Beach features soft, white sands, superb swimming and sunbathing, surfing, and access to both Powerhouse and Seagrove Parks. The area of beach along the coast between The River Mouth and 15th Street is considered by many to be one of the best beaches in San Diego because of the protected swimming area and gentle waves for beginner to intermediate surfers.

To the south of this, you'll find picturesque bluffs, a sand volleyball court, and a bike and jogging path. Many visitors stay later in the day to relax and enjoy the magnificent sunset views.
