Latest reviews on Azerbaijan's beaches

FHN Beach
10 Matty Zappy

The beach is really nice and easily accessible by public transportation from Baku. It offers all the necessary amenities such as changing rooms, toilets, and sunshades.

Mayak Beach
6 Sarina Dhar

The shoreline was deserted, pristine and inviting. Numerous beach huts were available for relaxation. The water was crystal clear, allowing you to wade nearly 100 meters into the sea until the waves reached your knees. On the contrary, the pathway leading to the beach was littered with debris, including shattered bottles and glass. It is advisable to wear sandals or flip-flops. A trip to this beach is highly recommended for those seeking tranquility.

Shebeke Beach
6 Zarif Zamanov

The beach was decent for the price, but the dressing rooms and showers are in need of maintenance.
