Roger Williams Park Zoo
6.5
If you're looking for a great photo op, the kangaroo exhibit is super cute, but try to visit it right after they open at 10 AM when it's quieter.
Pack a picnic! There are beautiful spots to eat around the zoo if you want to save a little cash instead of dining at the cafe.
If you're interested in a specific animal, check the map before you go in. I spent too much time wandering and missed a few I really wanted to see!
I recommend buying your tickets online ahead of time to skip the lines when you arrive. It saves you a good chunk of time, trust me!
India Point Park
3.6
My advice is to bring a picnic. There are several spots to sit, and grabbing some local takeout is a great way to enjoy the scenery without breaking the bank
I suggest checking out the views at sunset; they are absolutely breathtaking and worth the wait. Just grab a blanket and relax as the sky turns all sorts of colors.
Waterplace Park
3.3
My advice is to bring a picnic! I found a lovely spot on the grass, and it's way cheaper than eating at nearby restaurants. Just watch out for birds—they can be a bit aggressive!
I recommend visiting right around sunset. The lighting on the water is really beautiful, and you'll avoid the crowds that appear later in the evening. Trust me, the views are worth it!
Roger Williams Park Botanical
2.7
My advice is to bring a picnic! There are plenty of spots to relax, and the food options nearby can be a little pricey. Enjoying a meal surrounded by nature is the best!
