Boos (German pronunciation: [boːs]) is a municipality in the county of Mayen-Koblenz in Rhineland-Palatinate, western Germany.

The parish lies in the East Eifel, a mountain region characterised by volcanic maars and covers an area of 10.38 km², of which 5.02 km² are forest. In 2000, a nature reserve was established, the Booser Maar, with an area of 1.52 km².
