L'exploitation artisanale des carrières de la garenne d'Erquy commence à la fin du XVIIIe siècle avec la famille Le Doledec.

Elle tire avec difficulté une pierre au grain fin, se prêtant à la taille, appelée "granit".

Les premières carrières sont ouvertes vers la fin du Premier Empire, alors que la garenne appartient à l'Etat français. ces carrières familiales sont exploitées par des maçons, originaires de Caroual.

La famille Cholet exploite la dangereuse carrière du Pendu, Pierre Dayot celle autour du rocher du Sémaphore, Jean Rault la carrière le Gentil et Doledec, celle du Petit Port.

En 1848, un entrepreneur de Saint-Servan, Claude Jouanne, obtient du préfet l'autorisation d'ouvrir la carrière du Maupas (aujourd'hui Lac bleu).
