The Rivière des Pluies is a river on the Indian Ocean island of Réunion. It flows to the sea on the island's northern shore, between the communes of Saint-Denis and Sainte-Marie.
It gives its name to a district of Sainte-Marie that overlooks the river, and is inhabited by many people working in the capital.
