About L'Auberge Del Mar

L'Auberge Del Mar — 1540 Camino Del Mar, Del Mar, CA 92014. Perched above the beach in the coastal town of Del Mar, L'Auberge is a relaxed, upscale California resort known for its ocean-view lawns, coastal architecture, and easy access to the sand below. As San Diego wedding photographers, we love the resort's laid-back elegance, sweeping Pacific views, and the way the golden coastal light plays across the lawns at sunset.
