My pick
My tip“Advance booking is essential; ask for a lunch without pork or wine. The best time is September–November, for the mango and cherimoya season.”
An organic farm in the mountains of Almuñécar — the port where Abd al-Rahman I landed in 755 CE — grows mangoes, avocados, papayas and cherimoyas, and its owner leads the tour himself, then serves a rural lunch in the open air.
Moderate effort, needs a car
A farm in the mountains above Almuñécar, reached by a narrow, very steep country road; the tour is a walk among the terraces, fairly steep. Booking in advance. Strong sun.
Season
