Praia dos Ossos

The oldest fishing-port beach in Búzios, with colourful fishing boats moored in a small bay. Behind it stands the colonial-era Church of Sant'Anna, and the village atmosphere is strong.

Ossos Beach takes its name from the piles of whale bones left here during the whaling era. Today it is a calm little harbour full of fishing boats and sailing yachts. Along the shore are restaurants and bars housed in converted old buildings, and the beach marks the end of the Bardot promenade. It is not large and is better for taking photos, watching the fishing boats and climbing the small hill beside it to see the Church of Sant'Anna. You can take a water taxi from here to Azeda or João Fernandes Beach. It is about a 15-minute walk from Rua das Pedras.
