VICTORIA - The island is a grace and one of the local elegant residences of Vitória. It has the Senac hotel with restaurant open to the public and is currently taking place Casa Cor 2024 at Clube Italo-Brasileiro. There are public beaches, with more crystal clear waters, such as Hawaizinho, Grande etc where you can rent chairs and have a drink. It gets crowded on weekends, so I recommend going during the week.

This island is very close to shopping and the tourist it has a privileged view of the Third Bridge, Frade Island and the sea. The beaches are clear and calm waters and the streets are quiet . There are local shops . You need to take snack and take care of belongings because robberies are constant.

Driving around the island looking a for place to spend the day, we came across this gem close to Vitoria. It is a high end neighborhood with beautiful houses, short drive to a shopping mall and all that Vitoria has to offer. Beautiful little area.

Not much to do here, as it's a residential neighborhood, but it does offer some beautiful views of the bridge between Vitoria and Villa Velha. Great photo spots!

The Ilha do Boi is a quiet residential neighbourhood of Vitória. I decided to walk around the island to see what there was to see... it was a great walk! Quite hilly, but worth it. There are two beaches on the island: Praia da Direita was empty when I went (but it is the middle of winter here right now) and Praia Grande (there were a few people enjoying the gorgeous winter sun). There is no infraestrutura at the first beach, and a couple of vendors at the second. The island provides beautiful views of Vitória and the ocean. The villas are beautiful.

Is a residential island and has only one hotel that is Hotel Ilha do Boi (it is one of the 10 best cities in Victoria).
The island of Boi is visited by bathers because it has a beach with calm waters and chestnut trees that make some shadows.

Lovely place to visit. Very peaceful and with beautiful beaches. If you can afford stay in the Hotel Ilha do Boi. It is a nice place with nice view and it is not very busy in the weekends, what makes the place just nice to be.

a small but very lively beach with a nice view. There is also the possibility of using the (palm) trees surrounding the place for the people that need to stay in the shade.

It is a very cozy beach in a small island within Vitoria, called Ilha do Boi. The area is surrounded by fancy houses and a famous hotel. It very worth a visit! Beautiful views!

Written January 7, 2018
Sim, na praia deve ter um ou dois postinhos com produtos, mas se a sua intençao é passar mesmo o dia na praia recomendo levar o que quiser consumir

passarei 30h em Vitória com um compromisso de 2h. quantas horas eu precisaria reservar para conhecer a ilha e como chegar até ela?
Written October 2, 2016
A ilha do Boi e pequena e com pouco tempo você pode conhece-la;
Aproveite para almoçar no restaurante enseada comida mediterrânea;
e conhecer a região.
