Located on the shores of the Caspian Sea<\/strong>, Aktau is a city that travelers value more for its logistics than for the location itself. While the presence of the Caspian Sea gives it a unique touch, as the most important coastal city in Kazakhstan, as a tourist destination it doesn't offer much beyond its seawall, a few beaches, and the local life that revolves around the port.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On my trip through Central Asia<\/a>, I arrived in Aktau after crossing from Khiva, in Uzbekistan<\/a>, with the aim of taking a flight to Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan<\/strong>. However, before leaving, I took the opportunity to tour the city and its surroundings a bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this post, I tell you what to do and see in Aktau, a city where urban life meets the views of the Caspian Sea, its distinctive architecture, and the vast landscapes of the surrounding desert.<\/p>\n\n\n
