Nissaki, a small village on the north east coast of Corfu lies beneath Mount Pantokrator (the island's highest peak) on the road leading to Kassiopi.  Despite its undeniable beauty, Nissaki remains uncommercialised and is popular with everyone seeking a quiet, relaxing holiday. The name Nissaki means 'little island' and although that island is now joined to the mainland, the Taverna Mitsos stands upon it overlooking the small pebbled beach.

The sea is clear,clean and ideal for swimming, but the beach shelves quite steeply in places and can get busy during high season when the visiting caiques arrive.   There is a smaller beach (Skinos Beach) several hundred metres along the coast from Nissaki's main beach.  Nissaki should not be associated with the Nissaki Beach Hotel  (Krouzeri Beach) situated substantially further north along the coast.
