Weather Baku has a subtropical semi-arid climate with warm and dry summers,
cool and occasionally wet winters, and strong winds all year long. However, unlike many other cities with this climate, Baku does not see extremely cold winter. Baku is located on a peninsula on the shore of
the Caspian Sea.
At the same time Baku is noted as a very windy city throughout the year, hence the city's nickname the "City of Winds", and gale-force winds, the cold northern wind khazri and the warm southern wind
gilavar are typical here in all seasons.
The cold season lasts from November 28 to March 26 with an average daily high temperature below 12 C
Phone connection There are three major mobile phone operators currently in
Azerbaijan: Azercell, Bakcell and Azerfon. Azercell, Bakcell and Azerfon offer 2G, 3G and 4G services. All three networks are widely modern and reliable with shops located in major towns and cities
where one can purchase a sim card or get assistance if needed. Most unlocked mobile phones are able to be used on roaming however
network charges apply. Azercell, Bakcell and Azerfon are often recommended to tourists due to the variety of tariffs available and
the help available in a variety of languages.
