Splitska je Riva svoj današnji oblik počela dobivati prije dva stoljeća, kada su Francuzi u vrijeme Napoleona vladali i ovim krajevima, rukom maršala Marmonta.
Do danas, ta je šetnica postala gradski dnevni boravak, najpopularniji i najvažniji javni prostor Splita. U međuvremenu je nekoliko puta promijenjen njen izgled, ali uvijek je bila obilježena spektakularnom scenografijom koju pružaju južna fasada Dioklecijanove palače, s ulazom u Podrume, pa kasnije podignute zgrade zapadno od Palače, potom franjevački samostan sa crkvom Svetog Frane, te palača Bajamonti Dešković i Lučka kapetanija na istočnom kraju.
Današnja Riva je pješački raj, kojega krasi neprekinuti niz kafića i restorana, idealno mjesto za ispijanje jutarnje ili popodnevne kave, ili za večernji izlazak i druženje s prijateljima uz piće.
To je pozornica splitskog gradskog života, na njoj se održavaju brojna kulturna i zabavna događanja, na njoj je Split dočekivao svoje sportaše nakon bezbroj velikih uspjeha, poput Gorana Ivaniševića, igrača Hajduka i Jugoplastike, olimpijaca... Riva je i politički forum, na njoj se desetljećima oslikavaju političke prilike u kojima Split obstoji kroz masovne skupove. Naravno, svoje najljepše ruho Riva dobija za Sudamje, svetkovine posvećene Svetom Dujmu, zaštitniku Splita.

Nice little place with several spots for entertainment mostly during summer. We went on a walk around the area and loved the view of the place with restaurants, open markets and awesome people with rich heritage.

We loved our trip to the Split Riva and had a blast! With amazing views of the ocean, great shops and restaurants, we spent hours exploring and sitting enjoying the atmosphere. The architecture is beautiful and everywhere you look there are things to see.

It is very pleasant to walk along the coastline, on the one hand there are beautiful houses, on the other the sea and luxury cruise ships and yachts. You can turn to the old town at any time.

It is a very long street along the sea on one side and the old town on the other. In the morning, people sit in a cafe with a cup of coffee and admire the beautiful sea view, in the evening with aperol or wine, this is the most popular street for walking in Split

A very spacious promenade along the old town, a pleasure to walk at any time of the day or night. Palm trees grow along the entire promenade, many cafes and souvenir shops
