Just done some digging on this, as I thought that maritime borders would open too, but I think you're right. The below article is quite specific in referencing the Uzbek, Kyrgz and Russian land borders. It doesn't appear to cover maritime borders (and so arriving in Aktau from Baku).
Yeah unfortunately... I spoke with the KZ embassy in Norway, which contacted the border security in Aktau, which confirmed this. No news indication if they will open or not.
I would like to speak with them directly, but I have not succeeded to contact them.
I am planning to take this ferry 10th of May, so i really hope they will open.
Depends....
We know that Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan are still closed. Honestly, i don't know about Iran, so , if i'm right, only ferry can go from Iran to Kazakhstan.
Not really connected, but Kazhastan has decided that train traffic between Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan will restart on 1or2 of May and not from April 1st.

How likely is it that Azerbaijan will open land border 1 or 2 of May?
In Kazakhstan part of forum in topic: Entering port of Aktau or Kuryk - Covid restrictions, is good explanation about ferry from Baku to Aktau.
I hope that this will be possible soon, since my plan is to go from Kazakhstan to Azerbaijan and then to Georgia...
Im in georgia with my car now, and was hoping to enter Azerbaijan the next days. But today i spoke with a friend in azerbaijan and he said that they probably wont open before septemper, earlier he sais may. I dont know, but i really hope to get in azerbaija very soon.

Hello,
We can now apply for a tourist visa.
Is it better to order it in your own country of residence or from China? I have read that it can be done...
