The Clinton, Iowa Riverfront, (also known as The Dike by Clintonians) is an area by the Mississippi River in Clinton, Iowa, United States, The riverfront is home to one of Clinton's main attractions the Clinton Area Showboat Theatre. There is a band shell with tennis courts, a child-friendly park, restaurants, an aquatic center, and skate park.

The Riverfront was built as a solution from the result of a 1965 flood that flooded half of Clinton. Damages were estimated to be five million dollars. It has protected Clinton from further damage since.

In 2005, the City of Clinton updated the existing dike, with parks, recreation, and riverside views using the five million dollars in an Iowa Great Places Destination grant.
