Near to the jacksonville downtown youll see an amazing view during sunset and sunrise, I went there for sunrise. The view was amazing when you see people in boats, jogging around and then the mighty sun shows up with an orange color shine over the horizon.In 5 minutes it turned into pale yellow, now you have a full sun visibility in front of you. Just amazing
Great place for sunset walks and beautiful views of cityscape and river. Dolphin sightings are very common as you walk along the river. Definitely a must see when in jacksonville area.
Lively action in the night waters as we took our nightly constitutional along the Riverwalk. The dolphins were out feeding and playing. They came so close to the viewing platform you could see their skins and hear their breathing. In and out of the dark river waters they moved, writhing with the pleasure of capturing their dinner and showing off to viewers as they came to the surface for a breath. What a magnificent experience during our evening walk.
Nice place to walk, nice views. Lighting on the pathway isnt very good for about half of the path.
Great place for family or individual to walk. Good scenery for picture taking or just to sit and enjoy the scene.
Peaceful and serene. A great place for nice quiet walks if thats what youre into.
Great place to relax and watch the amazing view during sunset and sunrise.
Beautiful Riverwalk on the south bank of the St. Johns river in downtown Jacksonville
My experience there was nice ! I was walking down there for half an hour with my little kid and a friend of mine !I like how clean the place is with the fresh air around there.And the best thing is that walking side is not far from the nice friendship fountain which you can see and sit to relax in after a nice walk.Good place to see.
A really nice place just to sit down and enjoy your day! Or you can walk the whole South bank and enjoy the view of the river and downtown!
Gotta love this area. All the murals & the St Johns. Great walk along the water to catch dolphins playing. Nightime is beautiful with all the hues & bridges.
LOVE San Marco!!!
Great place if you just wanna enjoy a nice walk at night
Great place for a lunchtime stroll. It’s about 1.24 miles end-to-end starting at River City Brewery and ending at the school board building.
The view is gorgeous. A little over a mile to walk it, and it is wonderful with the Friends Fountain at the end. The river walk is calm, clean, and cozy.
This is a great site seeing destination. As you walk the river, there are beautiful art pieces and buildings to see. We didnt get to see it at night, but would like to go back to check out how it would be lit up at night. Great place to take a family walk or run for a work out.
This place is beautiful! New Years Eve was a memorable night. It wasnt crowded and the view was amazing!
Love taking my dog there and watching the dolphins.
Beautiful view. Nice place for a walk.
Nice stretch of scenic walking. Pretty good place to see the sunset. Probably better view for the sunrise but Im not up that early so dont ask me. My stepfather hates waking up before 7 except on Sundays to go to mass.
Nice walk, most areas are lit. Good views.
Awesome view and well designed, I took my sister here and we had a good time.
So peaceful, very nice and breezy at night. Perfect for Pokemon Go. You can see dolphins :)
Very beautiful at night when all the lights are on. The blue bridge was my favorite scene. Friendship Fountain was not as awesome as I anticipated but still a lovely stroll.
Beautiful walk, with great views of downtown Jacksonville. The flags on poles could be bigger, and the sailor statue needs to be better maintained. The tiles are falling off of it.
Great for pokemon go hunting
Its nice but not as nice as the Tampas riverwalk place
It is beautiful and it is great for a walk, however, it is not easy to find a parking spot, if you are not a local. I ended up parking in a garage (which is fine), but later I found the free parking. I liked the riverwalk, and I had the same experience as the others, it was completely abandoned, basically, no one was there.
Went here last sunday and had a great time and a great walk. Very nice veiws of jacksonville. Felt safe and peaceful
I go down there every weekend with family and its quiet and nice if you want to go for a jog. On the other side by the cummer museum is usually where i walk. there is also an area beside a railway where they have workout equipment for the public if anybody wants to go there to workout.
We stayed at the Lexington Hotel in Jacksonville. We were there to see the Rolling Stones! They were Great of course! The riverwalk was right next to the hotel. You can walk all along the river of course theres murals and statues, lights in the walk, seating you can watch dolphins cuz somehow they survive in the river cause its a mix of river and sea water. So its survivable for them. Also the River Taxi is a big pontoon boat that takes you to various locations on the river for 10 bucks a day! Its really great. I was only in Jacksonville for 3days but I would love to visit again for at least a week. Photo is a view from the River Walk looking at Downtown Jacksonville.
Nice walk along the river.
It was amazing with very good views.
Really nice way to take a stroll on the absolutely beautiful southbanj Riverwalk with extremely wide well paved walkways hard to find anywhere else in the world. Its quite a treat to walk here later in the day or during sunset. Be aware that during the sunny mid-day, it can get quite hot and uncomfortable in the summer. Still recommend taking a quick stroll if you have time.
Beautiful and peaceful. It probably helped that students were in school and people were at work.
Peaceful night & day with views of the river & reflections.
Great views of the river, downtown in the main Street bridge. Shad Khans yacht docked in front of CSX
We went on a weekend. The views were good but the place is bit dull, not many people around. Parking was bit difficult. We couldn’t take the ferry ride as there were no ferries when we went. The walk in the bridge is nice. A good place to spend time with family and fiends and to go for walk.
Beautiful at night! Nice in the day too. You can go for a walk for fresh air, running, or a fun date night.
Nice area to walk next to the river. Family friendly
Beautiful river walk
Nice! Great walk along the St Johns river. Peaceful to walk alone, take a romantic stroll with someone, or gather during events to watch people and fireworks.
Its kind of pretty, clean, has a good view of downtown.
Nice place for a walk.
Such a beautiful place to go relax and read book
The Riverwalk offers a Beautiful view of the St Johns River and downtown Jacksonville. You may even be lucky enough to see the local bottlenose dolphins and Manatees playing in the river.
Nice area along the St. John’s river on the southbank.
I love going for walks with my husband here its peaceful.
Beautiful, I really enjoyed it. We got here when it was still light out & walked around as the sun went down.
Perfect for Sunday evening walks.
Very nice tourist attraction to walk around to, take pictures, videos, anything. Relaxing view of the river and the city. Even take the water taxi!
Very peaceful, pleasant place to walk with your lady.
The day was a bit too chilly, but still had a great time. Awesome view.
It was really nice I went for Valentines day at night with my boyfriend. The view is gorgeous
Always nice and relaxing. Beautiful scenery.
Beautiful place for a walk. Sadly water taxi was closed due to weather conditions.
Nice place for an evening stroll.
I loved.
Beautiful riverwalk and great idea Downtown Ambassador!!!
Beautiful area to walk around and see views of the river. I recommend walking over the bridge as well even though the other side isnt yet completed.
You get a great view of St Johns River.
Come here when feeling tired and need some peace with your self
Always a nice place to take a walk, read, or just look for some of the many dolphins that pop up in this area.
Stayed in the apartment near the riverwalk . Sunset is breathless and the building structures are amazing
Had a pleasant walk. Dog friendly. Clean public restrooms (porta potties too). Can easily spend an lazy afternoon here. Water fountains a plenty and restaurants close by.
If U are here in Jacksonville are ever coming here be sure to go see for yourself how wonderful the Southbank is for yourself you will in joy it
Nice stroll along the river.
Beautiful walkway along the river! Wide enough to be shared by crowds but quiet enough for an intimate stroll in the evenings. Its well lit and comfortable to walk on 24/7. Nice shops and restaurants along the way if youre looking to pop in and out along the way.
It was very late in the evening when we visited the riverwalk, but it was VERY NICE! The walk was tranquil and visibly appealing with all the lights (bridges, buildings, etc) shining. I wouldnt mind coming back again during the day and again at night. The picture Im posting is under the bridge, near the park and River City Brewery Co.
We walked both sides of the Riverwalk on a breezy but warm Sunday in October. We got a great view of Jacksonville!
So very beautiful. My favorite place to walk and reflect and enjoy the scenery.
Great for family outings, workouts, and events all year round. My family and I love it here.
Very good place to walk.
Great place to relax
A beautiful place. At least a short visit should be payed to it.
Great place to take a long walk. You can make it a long walk by also walking over the main street bridge. If you want to see a breathtaking sunrise, walk the south bank from friendship fountain heading east, very early morning you’ll see gorgeous colors and it’ll be still and quiet.
Great place to walk or to just sit and think. Beautiful waterfront!
Absolutely loved the boat show. Great job Jacksonville
Security lady wouldnt allow me to dock my boat to let a passenger off to just grab a bite to eat.
This was my second visit. As always it was clean, well lit and nicely maintained. One of my favorite areas to visit in my new city.
Great place to take a walk with my dog Khalessi..You can park at the school board building and walk all the way to Friendship Fountain.I
Iam working on new construction on river walk will be very nice when complete
I mean its nice, I get why they made it concrete, but the design of the previous walk was much more intriguing to walk. Now its just a plain Jane walkway. They could have made it concrete and kept the design, or made a much better design.
My boyfriend and I had a great time. It was my first time visiting. I enjoyed it.
Beautiful part of jacksonville
Well-maintained walkway along the river. Dont expect a lot of shaded areas but if you avoid a very hot summer noonday, the breeze should be enough. I saw several dolphins while taking a walk.
Loved it, I enjoyed the atmosphere.
Beautiful and tranquil place
