Kiribati

Description

Celebrate the beauty and symbolism of this Pacific island nation with the vibrant 3×5 ft Kiribati National Flag. Officially adopted in 1979 upon independence from the United Kingdom, the flag features a striking and meaningful design that reflects Kiribati’s geography, culture, and spirit.

The upper half of the flag is red with a soaring gold frigatebird above a gold rising sun—symbols of freedom, power, and the equatorial sunrise. The lower half displays three white and three blue wavy lines, representing the Pacific Ocean and the three main island groups: the Gilbert Islands, Phoenix Islands, and Line Islands.

The 17 rays of the sun stand for the 16 Gilbert Islands and Banaba (formerly Ocean Island), paying tribute to the full extent of Kiribati’s island nation. The flying frigatebird, a powerful presence over the ocean, also symbolizes command of the sea, navigation, and cultural strength.

Crafted from durable, fade-resistant polyester, this flag is perfect for indoor or outdoor use. It features double-stitched edges for enhanced durability and two rust-resistant brass grommets for secure hanging. Whether displayed during national events, Pacific cultural festivals, or at home, the Kiribati flag is a proud statement of island resilience and independence.
