Nisaki (Greek: Νησάκι meaning "little island") is a small sea-side community and port in north-east Corfu, Greece.[2][3] It was named after the small island in its bay. During the 20th century, probably with the advent of mass tourism, several tavernas were built on this islet and a jetty was constructed, linking it permanently to the mainland. The main village of Nisaki grew up on the hill above this inlet where a church, school, cafe and many other buildings are located.
