Benaocaz, Mountain village in Sierra de Grazalema, Spain.

The administrative center extends across 69 square kilometers of mountainous terrain and maintains an elevation of 793 meters above sea level in Andalusia.

The settlement traces its origins to the Arabic Ocaz family dynasty, with archaeological evidence showing continuous habitation since the 8th century.

The Barrio Nazari district preserves medieval stone structures, narrow pathways, and traditional architectural elements characteristic of Moorish settlements in southern Spain.

The village connects to neighboring municipalities through the A-374 road, providing direct access to Ubrique and Villlaluenga del Rosario.

The Ecomuseo Histórico displays artifacts from nearby Neolithic caves and documents the relationship between local inhabitants and the natural environment.
