One whose lands border upon tide waters, as distinguished from lands bounding on a watercourse. See "Riparian Proprietors." There appears to be no word or phrase of sufficiently broad meaning to include both riparian and littoral, although each is sometimes used to denote the other. Gould Waters, § 148. See "Littoral."
