When ancestors designed that simple yet powerful red, white, and black flag for Sealand, they couldn't have fathomed the diverse corners of the world it would come to grace. Below are 4 destinations where the Sealand flag was peaked.
Kilimanjaro (Africa)
Mount Kilimanjaro is Africa's highest peak. The journey to the "Roof of Africa" takes you through an array of distinct ecological zones, from lush rainforests to alpine deserts, providing an unrivaled sense of exploration and adventure. Reaching the summit is a triumphant accomplishment, and the sunrise vistas over the African plains are breathtaking. The region's cultural richness, diverse population, and traditional practices add an extra layer of intrigue. Kilimanjaro hikes are exciting climbs and holistic and unforgettable adventures.
On November 14, 2016, the Sealand flag was proudly waved atop the iconic peak of Mount Kilimanjaro.

He followed in the footsteps of those who have reached new heights with this symbol of Sealand's sovereignty.
Elbrus (Europe)
Mount Elbrus, Europe's towering giant, beckons adventurers with a unique blend of excitement and allure. Its status as the continent's highest peak and its accessibility to climbers of varying skill levels make it a thrilling challenge for mountaineers.

I am a licensed nurse practitioner in the USA with 30+ years of urgent care, critical care and emergency department experience. I was wondering, what type of medical facilities do you have on Sealand? Are new new applicants allowed to actually live on Sealand? How is Medical care rendered? This is such an interesting and amazing concept? Do you allow visitors? Are vaccines required? So many very important and interesting questions. If one lives on Sealand as a resident, what are the work requirements? There’s got to be tons of work to do to keep the country going. Basic general maintenance.
