South Providence
India Point Park and South Water Street border downtown Providence on the southeast. The park is a pleasant spot for boating and strolling. At its end, in front of the hurricane barrier, is the ferry terminal for Rhode Island's nearby vacation spot, Block Island. South Water Street and nearby South Main Street contain clubs and restaurants providing a variety of environments and meals to suit many tastes in one five-block area. Hot Club is a popular nightspot that sits on the water, offering a view of boats moored at the docks next to it. Just north of India Point Park is the Wickenden Street area, a trendy strip of shops, restaurants and cafes. You can eat dinner at the Tokyo Restaurant or Taste of India, or you can sit on the porch of The Coffee Exchange, where students pick up coffees and muffins. The south end of Providence contains the award-winning Roger Williams Park Zoo, a lovely and entertaining spot that is home to more than 600 kinds of animals.
