The shingle and stone beach at NISSAKI is very pretty, sitting in a horseshoe bay with a taverna at one end. It was three beautiful pebble beaches necklaced together but one of Corfu beaches, at KROUZERI, is now dominated by the huge Nissaki Beach Hotel and a Club Med complex that looks about as attractive as a military training camp. The main Nissaki beach though, away from the hotels, is quiet and has good snorkeling but it can get busy when day tripping boats arrive. There are lots of deserted rocky coves nearby to explore if you follow the coastal path. There are no toilets on the beach though you can use the taverna if you buy a drink.

Beach location: Another of the northern highway offerings accessed from the main road about 25-30 km. from Corfu town. However, the turning down to the beach is sudden and severe. One of the hairiest half-kilometre descents you'll experience on Corfu! Disabled access: Wheelchairs may get as far as the taverns but will find it very difficult getting on to the beach itself. Choose neighbouring Krouzeri for better access.
Car parking: Yes. A municipal car park (paid) accommodates a limited number of cars. Otherwise, park on the roadside.
Food outlets/restaurants: Yes - Two or three tavernas in the attractive bay.
Sand/pebbles/shingle: Pebbles and shingle with some sand at the waterline. Small but attractive beach. Gets very busy. Sunbeds/umbrellas: Yes. Showers: No. For toilets use the taverna facilities.
Safe for children: Yes. The water tends to be placid and relatively safe for younger swimmers.
Watersports: Yes. Main users: This is a major trip-boat, tourist destination. Well cared for: Yes.
Mooring for boats: Theoretically, yes. However, there is very limited space and significant rocks in the area. Next to quayside/harbour: Small quay (slipway) but not obtrusive.
Storm drains/outlets into sea: None observed. Natural shady areas: Crescent bay is surrounded by (hot) rocks giving little shade. Further back are pleasant olive groves leading to neighbouring bays.
Any other facilities: Limited accommodation to rent, a mini-market or two and a couple of bars.
Distance to main resorts: Ipsos is about 4 - 5 km. and Corfu Town 20 - 25 km.
Public transport: Bus service to the main road otherwise phone a taxi or bring independent transport.
Blue Flag: Yes.
