Here are the main beaches in Del Mar:

Del Mar City Beach: This is the main beach in Del Mar, stretching from 15th Street/Powerhouse Park to the border with Solana Beach.

It is divided into: South Beach: A quieter section popular with surfers, accessed mostly by residents.

Main Beach: The most popular section for beachgoers, with wide sandy beaches, lifeguard towers, bathrooms, and adjacent parks like Powerhouse Park and Seagrove Park. Great for swimming, sunbathing, picnics, and beach walks.

North Beach (Dog Beach): The northern section where dogs are allowed off-leash, hence the nickname "Dog Beach."

Torrey Pines State Beach: Located just south of Del Mar City Beach, this is a scenic beach within the Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve. It offers great hiking trails along the cliffs and is a bit less crowded than Del Mar City Beach.

Powerhouse Park & Beach: A small beach area adjacent to the grassy Powerhouse Park, popular with families as it has a playground and is more sheltered from winds.

Other smaller beaches in Del Mar include Fletcher Cove in Solana Beach just north of the Del Mar border, and Cardiff State Beach a bit further north in the community of Cardiff-by-the-Sea.
