Famous for its outstanding and large selection of restaurants, Benahavís is a wealthy, pretty town, home to many different international communities and a lot of fantastic restaurants.
It’s winding, narrow streets sloping up and down the mountain side give it a unique charm. And the gorge that winds through the bottom of the town provides hours of fun for swimming, diving and canyoning in the summer months, offering a good distraction from the beaches of Marbella.
Depending on the season and the adventure level of the tour members, canyoning and walking options are available through the river, as well as a gentler 1hr walk across the new Bridge and into the Las Angosturas Natural Park.
