The village was established as a Nahal military outpost in 1980 and demilitarized when turned over for civilian residential purposes in 1984 to 15 pioneer families.
Nisanit also served as a satellite municipal branch of the regional council for the three northern Gaza Strip settlements.
Nisanit, which numbered about 300 families (around 900 people), was one of the few "mixed" Gush Katif settlements with Orthodox and non-religious Jews living together.
