Riva 56 Rivale
Sleek Italian lines for Costa del Sol coves
- 17m
- 10 guests
- 2 cabins



Riva Aquariva carries the low, polished lines the yard has built its name on, with a mahogany deck that catches the light differently depending on the hour you choose to be out. At 10 metres and capable of around 41 knots, she is built for speed and presence rather than volume — eight guests, one cabin, and a helm position that puts the person driving right in the middle of the action.
She suits the kind of afternoon that starts at Puerto Banús and does not need to be complicated: out along the coast, a stop somewhere quiet enough to swim without company, and back in before the light drops. The run west toward Estepona opens onto a calmer stretch of shoreline than the marina itself, and the Aquariva's speed means that distance is not a reason to skip it.
Because she carries eight guests and a single cabin, she works best as a couples' boat or a tight group of friends rather than a full family outing spread across multiple generations — the cabin gives a place to change or step out of the sun rather than a space to sleep aboard. Guests staying nearby in Puente Romano or La Zagaleta can reach the marina in a short transfer, which keeps the booking window practical for a half-day rather than a full logistics exercise.
