This has changed recently. Click "All Resources" then click your network security group: Screenshot 1

Then click "Inbound Security Rules". Click 'Add'. Click 'Add'. Then fill in the details. For 'Destination Port Range' you should put whatever port Apache is listening on, probably 80. Example: Screenshot 2

Click 'Okay' and you're good to go!

You only need to configure an endpoint to do that.

In your azure panel -> Virtual Machines -> your_machine_name -> Endpoints. You should see something like this:

Endpoint configuration

Public port -> 80 (if you want to serve your_machine_name.cloudapp.net)

Private port -> (your server listening port)

what exactly did you try? Azure Virtual Machine? Azure Worker Role? I guess an Azure Virtual Machine using Linux since you are talking about Apache. You need to add an TCP Endpoint on port 80.
