Nissaki is situated along the coastal road that leads up to Mount Pantokrator. This is typically a small fishing village, with access to the white shingle beach down the steep olive groves. Although arduous in parts, the journey is well worth it, with spectacular views of the deep blue sea contrasting against the white pebbles. The heart of Nissaki resort is mainly along the twisting through road, with a selection of bars and restaurants running alongside offering a wide selection of local cuisine. Local shops are still very old fashioned and traditional, however the luxurious Nissaki Beach Hotel offers a slightly more modern touch to the traditional surroundings. On the outskirts of Nissaki village stands Agios Panton, the local church. Built in 1947, this rectangular building boasts impressive architectural structure, with the interior offering unique and intricate wooden carvings & geometric designs.
