Splitska Riva

Splitska Riva (Split waterfront) is a long pedestrian street in Split, and the most popular promenade for the locals. If you book accommodation in Split, you will likely find yourself on the Riva, an essential starting point for exploring the charms of this Mediterranean city. It runs along the Adriatic Sea, stretching from Diocletian Palace to the Harbour. Although officially named Obala hrvatskog preporoda (the Croatian Revival Coast), it is simply referred to as the Riva and stands out as one of the most popular tourist attractions in Split. Being in Split and not being on the Riva is almost as if you have not truly experienced the city. The Splitska Riva is adorned with numerous restaurants, cafes, shops, and artistic sculptures. It is a place for strolling, relaxing, and enjoying the view of the sea. Built in the 19th century during the period of French rule in Split, it was renovated in 2008. The Riva is a lively and pleasant street that is an integral part of the Split identity. It is a place where people gather, socialize, and take pleasure in their city.
