The famous rock planted in the middle of the waves, became at the end of the 19th century the base of a majestic fishing boat , where one could, during La Belle Epoque, eat and taste cocktails and teas, perched a little more than six meters above the water. This restaurant connected to a charming kiosk , typical of this era on the Riviera, quickly became an emblematic site of the city of Nice.
In 1941, the fishing boat having suffered damage, the architect René Livieri and his client decided to give new life to this place by giving birth to the Plongeoir , created in place of the kiosk on the first rock and its restaurant.
