The Minister for Infrastructure, Connètable Andy Jehan, has published an expressions of interest document for the Havre des Pas Lido and Concession.
The Government welcomes interest from operators who wish to manage the Havre des Pas open seawater pool and its associated concession facility.
This historic and iconic coastal destination, situated in one of Jersey's most scenic locations, provides a unique opportunity to contribute to the Island's community life and visitor economy.
The Government is seeking an operator committed to ensuring inclusive, year-round, mixed-use access to this public asset.
The facility should serve the diverse needs of the Island, including families, recreational swimmers, fitness enthusiasts and social groups while enhancing Jersey's appeal to the local community and visitors.
Minister for Infrastructure, Connètable Andy Jehan said:
“The Havre des Pas Lido is a vital public asset, and we want to hear from individuals, businesses, and community groups who would be interested in potentially operating the Lido for the benefit of the community. We are willing to listen to expressions of interest for the operation of the whole site, or for part of the Lido.
"This is an important step towards ensuring the year-round inclusive community use of the Havre des Pas Lido, and it will assist us in identifying potential future uses. We are open to all ideas and options, provided that they are built around the interests of the Island community, and especially Islanders living in St Helier. We are confident in creating an exciting future for Havre des Pas and look forward to working in partnership with interested parties to achieve our vision.
"A formal tender process will then follow at the conclusion of this expression of interest process."
