4. Praia dos Ossos

   This small beach is neighboring Praia da Armação, Praia dos Ossos is 1.5 km from the Center of Búzios. It received this name, because of the whale bones that were buried there, when fishing for these animals was still allowed, a fact that occurred in the region from 1730 to about 1816. The cove has incredible scenery, framed by an incredible view and small colorful boats, in addition to the Church of Sant’Ana on top of a hill, this church was built in 1740. From there, the trail that leads to the paradisiacal Azeda and Azedinha Beaches starts. This small and important beach is almost mandatory for tourists who want to take nautical tours in the region. Praia dos Ossos is the starting point for several excursions to visit islands and beaches in Búzios. Boat trips are one of the biggest attractions in the region.
