Baku looks different from the water: the Old City, modern towers and the bright seafront come together to create a beautiful city view. A boat trip in Baku is a great way to leave the busy streets behind for a while and see the capital from a new side. During the trip, you can enjoy the views, take photos and watch the city change as you move along the bay. A sea trip in Baku can be a relaxing part of your visit and a nice way to discover some of the city’s famous places from the water. In the evening, when the buildings and seafront lights turn on, the view becomes even more special.
