The white sand beach of Nissi Beach is deservedly called one of the best beaches in Ayia Napa. Perhaps the best. It is located 3.5 kilometers west of the city center. The word "Nissi" in Greek means "Island". 

There is indeed a small island on Nissi Beach. From the shore on Nissi beach, a sand spit extends towards the island. Walking along you can reach it. Usually the water level on this spit is quite high, and you have to go to the island up to your waist in water about 100 meters. Sometimes the water level decreases, and you can walk to the island on the sand, barely getting your feet wet. 

There are no special attractions on the island itself, but a lot of people still go to it. If you also decide to take a walk to this island, then be sure to bring your sneakers, as the rocky coast of the island is very hot in the sun. On the island, you can rent boats, water bikes and snorkeling equipment. 

Nissi Beach is the most popular beach for young people. Along the entire shore there are sun beds with umbrellas. Even during the day, loud music plays in the bars on the beach, and in the evening there are noisy parties, fashionable DJs perform. Tourists with children prefer other beaches, such as Makronissos Beach, Sandy Bay Beach, Landa Beach. 

The entrance to the sea at Nissi Beach is flat, with white sand. The beach has a Blue Flag, as it meets the highest quality standards. Two hotels are located directly on the beach: the Adams Beach hotel and the Vassos Nissi Plage hotel.
