Throughout the year, Afternoon Tea at Fairmont Grand Del Mar is reimagined through a series of thoughtfully curated seasonal and thematic experiences. Each offering is designed to reflect a distinct moment in time, capturing the essence of the season, the spirit of celebration, or the charm of a beloved story, while honoring the timeless ritual of tea.
