Sealand - island of the Danish kings
Sealand is surrounded by coast and offers kilometres of sandy beaches that range among the cleanest and most child-friendly beaches in Europe. Even the woods, bird sanctuaries and chalk cliffs don't resemble anything else. The nature of Sealand is beautiful and comprehensive. The northern part of Sealand is characterized by some of Denmark's largest lakes and forests as well as some of the most beautiful and impressive, old royal palaces. In the south of Sealand you can experience the impressive cliff Stevns Klint. The sea Kattegat and the inlet Isefjord offer the most varying landscapes.
