Located in southern California, just south of Cardiff-by-the-Sea is Del Mar. Like Cardiff-by-the-Sea, it is situated along the Pacific coast and offers amazing ocean views. Del Mar is most famous for its world-renowned racetrack that is less than a mile away from the Pacific Ocean, hence often referred to as "the place where the surf meets the turf." Various horse and car racing events are held here throughout the year.
Some of the highlights of this famed thoroughbred horse racing venue include:
- the capacity of nearly 50,000 spectators
- free rides and games for youngsters
- has a rich history
- holds regular major events
The racing season goes on in mid-July, August, and early September and the Del Mar events are major in the racing calendar ever since the racetrack opened in 1937. The Del Mar Race Course is filled with history. The famous Seabiscuit-Ligaroti match race, familiar even to some of the most casual racing fans, was held here in 1938 and it drew a nationwide radio audience.
