Aims. We present ground-based observations of the disk around the A-type star β Pictoris to obtain scattered light images at the highest angular resolution (60mas; equivalent to about 1 AU at the distance of the star) and the highest contrast in the very close environment of the star. The purpose of this program is to perform a close inspection of the inner disk morphology.Methods. Images were collected with NACO; the AO-assisted near-IR instrument on the VLT (ESO) which includes two types of coronagraphs: classical Lyot masks and phase masks. In this program we took advantage of both types of coronagraphs in two spectral bands; H-band for the Lyot mask and Ks-band for the phase mask. The Lyot mask blocks a large central region around the star (radius;
