The seaside café site at Grève de Lecq could be brought to life this summer as the National Trust launches a search for pop-up eateries, food trucks, small events and exhibitions to fill the space.
Earlier this year, States Members voted overwhelmingly to approve a proposition from Chief Minister Lyndon Farnham to acquire the coastal site for £3.6 million and gift it to the National Trust for Jersey.
The sale formally went though the Royal Court last month, and the Trust restored public access to the beach and re-opened the car park in time for Easter.
The charity is now beginning the process of going out to public consultation regarding future uses for the site.

The National Trust today announced that it is seeking expressions of interest from pop-up eateries and food truck operators to offer a service from the site for the summer season.
The Trust confirmed it will also be looking to host a range of small events, exhibitions, and activities during this time to bring the site "to life", and would be interested to hear from anybody who wants to be involved in this process.
The National Trust said it is "enormously grateful to have been given the opportunity to help regenerate this key coastal site for the benefit of our community".
Interested parties should contact National Trust CEO Alan Le Maistre via email Alan.LeMaistre@nationaltrust.je or write to The National Trust for Jersey, The Elms, St Mary, JE3 3EN.
They should provide relevant information including images of stalls/food trucks or information on suggested events and activities.
