The municipality of Benamocarra belongs to the Axarquía region, which offers picturesque landscapes, whitewashed villages and agricultural traditions. The town dates back to the Moorish period of Al-Andalus, falling to the Catholic Monarchs in 1487. Therefore, the village has a rich history with Moorish and Andalusian influences and retains its traditional charm with narrow streets and historic architecture.
Benamocarra is a worthwhile destination for a cycling tour, with sights such as the Iglesia de Santa Ana and the Plaza del Calvario. Nearby, detours to Vélez-Málaga with its historic old town and the Castillo are worthwhile.
