Benecia was an inhabited planet in the Alpha Quadrant. In the mid-23rd century, the Benecia colony was located on this planet. The planet was relatively close to Planet Q. At warp 2, Benecia was located approximately 48 hours away from Camus II. The location of Benecia in the Milky Way Galaxy was depicted on a Federation star chart in 2293. (TOS: "The Conscience of the King", "Turnabout Intruder"; Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, production art)
The location of Benecia on "The Explored Galaxy" wall chart
In 2266, the Karidian Company intended to play two Shakespeare performances on Benecia. After the attempted murder of Captain James T. Kirk, Lenore Karidian, the daughter of Governor Kodos, was institutionalized on Benecia. She had been murdering the survivors of the Tarsus IV massacre who could identify her father. In Doctor Leonard McCoy's opinion, she would receive the best of care available on Benecia. (TOS: "The Conscience of the King")
In 2269, Commander Spock judged the medical facilities of the colony to be most primitive, not suited to diagnose and treat radiation sickness. Janice Lester, who had transferred her consciousness to the body of Kirk, ordered the ship to set course to Benecia, to buy herself time to kill Captain Kirk whose consciousness was trapped in her original body. (TOS: "Turnabout Intruder")
