Comares is a picturesque, traditional Andalusian village in the province of Málaga, Spain, known as the "Balcony of the Axarquía" for the breathtaking views from its hilltop location, some 700 meters above sea level. The village is characterized by its Moorish past, evident in the narrow, winding streets and the remains of the Arab fortress on Musmullar Hill. Places of interest include the Church of Our Lady of the Incarnation and the opportunity to enjoy the panoramic views, stroll, and discover local crafts, such as traditional clothing.

The Torre Vigía Manganeta is a historic watchtower on the coast of Almayate Bajo, near the mouth of the Vélez River. It was built in the 16th century during the reign of Philip II as part of the Spanish coastal defense system to protect the region from pirate attacks. Raids by North African corsairs, in particular, made such watchtowers necessary. The cylindrical tower reaches a height of approximately 8 to 10 meters and has a diameter of around 4 meters. It is made of stone and mortar, a typical construction method for coastal watchtowers of that period. Its location near the beach, south of Almayate Bajo and not far from the Vélez River, allowed control of the stretch of coast between Torre del Mar and Benajarafe. Today, the Torre Manganeta is protected as a historical monument and is part of the cultural heritage of Andalusia.

The 9.6-meter-high old lighthouse, built in 1929, and the new, approximately 24.7-meter-high lighthouse, built in 1974, are still in operation. It is located directly on the promenade and is visible from afar. Its automatic signal has a range of approximately 13 nautical miles. Inside, 106 steps of an iron staircase lead up to the top. The small, 9-meter-high lighthouse, which stands next to the new "large" one, was built in 1969 but did not meet modern requirements.

The tower is located on the right bank of the Vélez River estuary and dates back to the 16th century. Due to sedimentary deposits over the centuries, the shoreline is now 800 m high and partially submerged by 8 m. It is built of masonry and brick.

Vélez-Málaga offers some impressive views, especially when exploring the region by bike. The Camino de la Ribera is a beautiful route that is great for touring. The path runs along the Vélez River and offers views of the surrounding hills, olive groves and Axarquía countryside. The Camino de la Ribera is relatively flat, making it ideal for a relaxed bike ride. There are many opportunities to stop along the way to enjoy the surroundings and take great photos.

A tour to Comares, one of the most beautiful white villages in Andalusia, is a challenging but worthwhile undertaking. Comares is located on a mountain peak in the Axarquía region, about 700 meters above sea level and offers spectacular views of the surrounding area. This tour is ideal for ambitious cyclists who want to enjoy steep climbs and a mix of nature and culture. A road bike or a mountain bike with good gears for the steep climbs is recommended. The route is suitable for experienced cyclists.

The original lighthouse was built in 1864, but due to coastal erosion and other problems, it was rebuilt and relocated several times. The current lighthouse was finally built in its current position in 1976 after several moves. The Torre del Mar lighthouse is not only a functional part of coastal navigation, but also a popular destination for a tour, especially at sunset. The lighthouse is a fine example of the combination of modern technology with the traditions of seafaring along the Spanish coast.
