Del Mar is an 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. 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. About 4,600 Del Mar residents enjoy the amenities of a small-town without forfeiting any of the big-city opportunities.
