In classical shallow water wave (SWW) theory, there exist two integrable one-dimensional SWW equation [Hirota-Satsuma (HS) type and Ablowitz-Kaup-Newell-Segur (AKNS) type] in the Boussinesq approximation. In this paper, we mainly focus on the integrable SWW equation of AKNS type. The nonlocal symmetry in form of square spectral function is derived starting from its Lax pair. Infinitely many nonlocal symmetries are presented by introducing the arbitrary spectrum parameter. These nonlocal symmetries can be localized and the SWW equation is extended to enlarged system with auxiliary dependent variables. Then Darboux transformation for the prolonged system is found by solving the initial value problem. Similarity reductions related to the nonlocal symmetry and explicit group invariant solutions are obtained. It is shown that the soliton-cnoidal wave interaction solution, which represents soliton lying on a cnoidal periodic wave background, can be obtained analytically. Interesting characteristics of the interaction solution between soliton and cnoidal periodic wave are displayed graphically.
