Nature
The forested area which is immediately intertwined with the sandy beach is rich with unique trees particular to this area.[7][8] In the background, the forests merge with Mount Shahdagh of Greater Caucasus Mountain range.[1] Due to absence of manufacturing industry and low population density, the sea water is clean compared to heavily industrialized Absheron Peninsula.[1] Nabran area is rich with clean drinking water flowing from Mount Shahdagh. In the early 1900s, at Haji Zeynalabdin Taghiyev's initiative, a project was started with an intention to pump the clean drinking water from the area to Baku. The pipe would start from Shollar village and travel south to Hacı Zeynalabdin village (formerly known as "Nasosnaya" meaning pumping station in Russian) in the vicinity of Baku where it would be pumped to the higher ground on which Baku is located. The project was completed in 1917.[9]

The company still has two tourist hostels.[13] In 2009, Nabran tourism expansion project was started in order to create more facilities for increasing tourism in the area.
